Hi!
We try to roll out Windows 8.1 w/Update 1 and Internet Explorer 11 with the lastest updates installed. The clients are configured to autodetect proxy settings in IE with WPAD DHCP-Option 252. The clients are not allowed to query WPAD in DNS.
No problems with Windows 7.
In NetMon I can see the DHCP Request with the following result
- WPAD: http://wpad.server.name/wpad.dat - Type 252
OpCode: Web Proxy Auto Detection (WPAD), 252(0xFC)
Length: 30 (0x1E)
URL: http://wpad.server.name/wpad.dat
+ End:
But the Windows 8.1 client still tries to use name resolution
NbtNs:Query Request for WPAD <0x00> Workstation Service
The same issues with WindowsToGo with Windows 8.1 w/Update 1.
Any ideas? We tried a lot with Troubleshooting Automatic Detection on http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc302643.aspx but nothing helps. Thanks!
