    We set up DNS on our server to handle a zone like this: “apple.example.k12.oh.us. everything works great we get out everything resolves correctly, but we are not getting access to our filtering system
    through NWOCA. They provide filtering for us at a larger level. So now all the clients are setup to use the server as its DNS server, if I change the client back to there DNS servers filtering works but I can’t login (because DNS is not set up on there end for our servers). I setup forwarder entry in DNS and put the there DNS servers in that forwarder, but the filtering still doesn’t work. When we go to a site that should be blocked by our filter (BESS), it says, instead, “The specified server can not be found.”

    Any ideas?

    I created a new zone and with a “forward” as the type. Then I added the ISP’s DNS to that? Is that not correct?

    It appears it’s getting blocked but its not the right page, its a page can not be found page. I need to look more into this but I think that’s the case.

    Okay, so its just says server is not found (error message not page) then if I try again it goes through. So it is not being blocked. Are my fowarders correct?
