Clients cannot access internet.


my goal: set windows server network has dhcp , ad. allow client windows machines interact server.

the steps i've taken:

i installed windows server 2012 on vm virtual box. i installed ad, dhcp , dns , promoted domain controller. 

the network settings in virtual box server have been set bridged mode.

my router/defaultgateway is: 192.168.0.1

my pc: 192.168.0.2

static ip of virtual win server: 192.168.0.24

dhcp range of windows server 2012: 192.168.0.25 - 192.168.0.35.

i installed client win 7 machine, added domain. client able log in using ad user had created, , picked ip address dhcp server between specified range above.

the server can access internet. client cannot. client can ping default gateway, 192.168.0.1 access shared drives , ping server cannot ping "google.com".

what have done wrong? please provide guidance on how can clients access internet.

both client , server in bridged mode. please correct me if wrong.

i repeat, server can browse internet, client can't.

please help. appreciated.

thanks

hi,

what dns addresses configured on client machine? have configured dns forwarders in dns servers resolve internet names?

dns forwarders used dns servers resolve names don't know i.e internet names.

you should configure clients primary dns server local ad dns server. i.e 192.168.0.24

primary dns first place clients name resolution addresses not in local dns cache. secondary dns client looks if primary dns doesn't respond in timely manner. in ad network, both of these should dns servers local network.

some configure public dns addresses secondary dns server. if environment small can use public ip address like(8.8.8.8 - google) secondary dns server.

if have big ad environment don't configure secondary dns public dns ip, because using public dns servers secondary dns break lot of active directory in event primary dns offline.

configure dns server use forwarders
