I have 4 DNS servers and 4 DHCP servers issuing different
IP Address scopes.

I noticed that I have PCs that were not switch on for
weeks, and when they are switch on the IP address from the
PC using ipconfig /all is different from that on some of
the the DNS server. However the DHCP servers seem to be
updating its IP address correctly.

What settings must I have on the DHCP and or DNS for it to
dynamically update the DNS server

If update DNS is enabled on the DNS tab of the scope properties *or* on the
DHCP server properties, *and* you have option 015 configured with the domain
name, *and* that zone exists in the DNS server listed in TCP/IP properties
of the machine DHCP is on, *plus* on Wink2 clients TCP/IP properties DNS tab
you have selected "Register this connection's addresses in DNS", DHCP *will*
update DNS.
