Hi there,
If I have 2 x W2K3 DNS servers in DNS client lease, I noticed
sometimes the client does not query both servers in sequence but it
stops at first DNS. Is it normal DNS client resolver behaviour?
Also if I have a DNS server for my OU should I point it first to
itself then to the next DNS from different site and OU? I only have 1
domain and multiple sites with OUs.
Thank you, T

Hello Tester,

The client uses the first DNS that responses to the query. For the DNS settings
on the server, preferred itself and secondary one or more other DNS servers.

Best regards
