Can't access locally to Server 2003 shared folder when internet connection for server is down.

-

hi, having weird problems @ company's windows server 2003.

the server acting active directories+local dns server+dhcp local lan is on.

sample setting:
server ip: 10.10.1.1
client ip: 10.10.1.150
router 1 internet gateway 1 (for server): 10.10.1.250
router 2 internet gateway 2 (dhcp assign client pc): 10.10.1.249
domain name: example.com
these are pluged switch.

client login windows will using the user name "example\user"
dhcp allocate ip 10.10.1.150 client.
gateway assign client 10.10.1.249
dns server assign client 10.10.1.1
client can access server's shared folder thorught local area network.

my problem is, when router 1 10.10.1.250 hanged or disconnected internet or having problems.
client not able access shared folder in server.
have restart router , wait internet connection up.
client able access shared folder. maybe have logout relogin again able see shared folder.

my confusion that:
why above problem arise when shared folder access through lan, , dns domain for lan?
internet shouldn't "requirement" active directories work right?
shared files shouldn't p2p in lan, why internet connection affect it?

so... idea should for? or setting wrongly done?
hope can point me directions on how throubleshoot issue.

thanks 1st.

hello,

"is server, , client accessing external dns?"

correct try use external dns servers , way run problems.

"so when internet down, or router freezed, server , client having problems?"

not if use domain dns server on nic, 10.10.1.1. please modify settings, dc should use only, otherwise dns registration in zone not correct.

on dc/dns server open run line , type dnsmgmt.msc, here see zone settings under forward lookup zones. on dns server name at top righclick , choose properties, see forwarders tab , here enter isps dns server. that's it.

but before reconfigure settings on nics.
