    i had a network where the workstations IP was statically configured an there where several rules on the TMG to control traffic and browsing using the hostname(resolved) of each workstation.

    Now the network has changed to DHCP but TMG does not resolve them dinamically, for example "PC A" is listed as "192.168.0.10" in the TMG definitions/rules, but it turns out PC A is now 192.168.0.200, yet TMG won't bother at all..., BUT if you edit the host entry and "resolve" it, it WILL find the new ip..

    so, how can i fix this problem and make TMG resolve the hostnames constantly, those rules NEED to stay as host rules(no usernames and all that).

    TMG is 2010

    Hi,

    there is no match between the TMG computer objects and the real client Computer name and their IP addresses. If you want to use DHCP for the clients and if you want to have control over the IP addresses accessing the TMG Server you must use DHCP IP address reservations
