[Thinstation-general] alternative dns servers

[Rudolph T. <tru...@sa...>]

Hello-

 

Is it possible to have ThinStation use DHCP to obtain it's IP address
but use DNS servers that are specified in thinstation.conf.buildtime
(ignoring the ones provided by DHCP)? I've been playing around with it
and from what I can tell if you have NET_USE_DHCP=On thinstation ignores
the NET_DNS1 and NET_DNS2 settings. Is this behavior by design? Is there
any way to specifically set the dns servers and still use DHCP?

 

I'm running Thinstation 2.2.2d with a local build environment. Clients
are booting from hard disk using syslinux. My thinstation.conf.buildtime
contains:

 

NET_USE_DHCP=On

NET_FILE_ENABLED=On

NET_FILE_METHOD=tftp

NET_FILE_ALTERNATE=tftp.domain.name

NET_HOSTNAME=0357A-TSC-201B_*

NET_TIME_SERVER=ntp.domain.name

NET_DNS1=10.70.255.249

NET_DNS2=10.1.81.240

NET_DNS_SEARCH=domain.name

 

 

Thanks,
