Problem : Group Policy Flush DNS

Problem : Group Policy Flush DNS

Users on our network are unable to view OWA (outlook web access) from remote locations after leaving the network with their laptops.

the problem is isolated to IE since viewing OWA on browsers such as Firefox have eliminated the problem. im guessing IE caches dns settings differently than firefox.

the problem is easily resolved using the command (ipconfig /flushdns)

I would like to implement a group policy for our remote/laptop users.

I know there are registry settings that can fix this by changing the max cache time and the dns cache timeout. but would like it implemented at a group policy level.

any suggestions?
