    Hi,

    I did a simple DirectAccess lab I already made work couple of times ago. For reasons, this time it did not work. I did some troubleshooting and the commands below show weird settings :

    - netsh dns show state

    - netsh namespace show effectivepolicy

    I did some googling and found that the link below tries to troubleshoot similar problem :

    http://support.risualblogs.com/blog/2010/12/23/direct-access-issues-on-a-specific-windows-7-client-network-location-behavior-never-use-direct-access-settings/.

    That link suggests to do some setting in the registry :

    Key: Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\DNSClient or System\CurrentControlSet\services\Dnscache\Parameters<1>

    Value: "EnableDAForAllNetworks"

    I tried and it and it did not solve my problem. Anyway ; my aim is not this kind of fine troubleshooting. I just need to know why I fall in this trouble and how to avoid it next time I do the lab. I want to make the lab work (of course) !

    Thanks in adavance for any help !
