Configuring DNS on the Client Computer

If the client computer has an IP address specified to it your DNS configuration should be as follows:

From below select the operating system that represents your client computer:

Windows NT 4 (workstation/server)


Windows 95 TCP/IP Setup

1. Click on Control Panel -> Network. Under the Configuration tab, click on "TCP/IP for the LAN Adapter" -> Properties.

  • Under the IP Address tab,you will have "Specify an IP address" selected. Below is a screenshot example.

  • Under the DNS tab, select "Enable DNS".

    Host: Enter in the name assigned to the client computer. The name is available from Control Panel -> Network -> Identification. Avoid punctuation marks.

    Domain: Enter your local domain name. The domain name can be your ISP's domain name, but it is better to use our own. Feel free to make one up (e.g.fred.com, suzie.org). The name does not need to be officially listed with any Internet bodies- since it is on your local, private network. It is invisible to the rest of the world. All of your computers should have the same domain name, and because of the way DNS lookups are made it is best if you have a .com or other standard domain name on the end.

    DNS Server Search Order: Enter in the internal IP address of the WinProxy computer only.

2. Click OK -> OK, then reboot/restart your operating system.
