  • How to find out the DNS for a DHCP client

    Hi
    I have a Win2k server that is configured for automatically configuring
    IP address through DHCP and DNS
    How do I find out which DNS the machine is connecting to?

    The problem that I am facing is that
    the machine loses its IP address
    a)renewal of IP address through DHCP takes several attempts
    b) even if the IP address is gotten the DNS server takes several
    minutes to respond (however, once a response is gotten from DNS server
    - further responses are easy)
    I want to statically configure the IP and DNS server to avoid all this
