Hi,

Can a Windows 2003 DNS server give different reponses depending of the IP
address of the client who made the request.

My external users have to resolve an URL using my Windows 2003 DNS Server
with the same DNS Server than my internal users. And I want that my DNS give
different IP address to my users in front they are internal or external ones.

Thanks,

Matthieu

Microsoft DNS uses network mask prioritising, meaning it will return the IP
address closest to that of the client requesting it. If it’s unable to
determine this then it returns an un-prioritised list or round robin list if
enabled.
So I think the answer is no.
What you will have to do is either set up a different zone for your external
clients.
or have them use a different DNS server.
or only have the external IP address listed.
