DNS
Does it matter which DNS addresses I use? I have been setting all church computers to static IP addresses, but I can't decide which DNS IPs to use. Some use the DNS from the ISP, while others use a Google DNS. Does the Church have DNS servers?

Re: DNS
I have noticed that the church provided firewalls typically have DNS addresses of 8.8.8.8 and 4.2.2.2. I don't know if they belong to the Church. This information is reported by running the "ipconfig /all" command on a connected computer.drepouille wrote:Does the Church have DNS servers?

Re: DNS
Neither belong to the church. 8.8.8.8 is Google. The story behind 4.2.2.2 seems to be a bit complex, but it's not church.jdlessley wrote:I have noticed that the church provided firewalls typically have DNS addresses of 8.8.8.8 and 4.2.2.2.

The story (whichever version you read) really is fascinating, but currently this one resolves to Level 3 Communications.russellhltn wrote:The story behind 4.2.2.2 seems to be a bit complex, but it's not church.
