We have an issue in Windows 11 machiens which are not reciving DNS Suffix Search List from DHCP.
All windows 10 machine in the same network are receiving the dns Suffix Search List from DHCP and the windows 11 not receiving
i know i can add the DNS Suffix Search List through registry.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters]
"SearchList"="csrv"
But this solution is less preferable

is there a fix for this?
Thanks in advance!

    Hello, I have the same problem with Windows 11 workstations.

    The DHCP server (linux) is configured as follows:

    option domain-search "domain-1.fr", "domain-2.fr";

    On Windows 10 workstations, the DNS suffix search list includes these 2 domains, on a Windows 11 workstation this is not the case.

    Is it a bug ? or is it just not possible anymore with windows 11 ?

    Where can I find an answer to this problem?

    Thanks for your help

    I'm wanting to make sure I'm understanding that a fairly fundamental network feature is really taking over a YEAR to fix? Is that correct?

    The response from @Darrell Gorter mentions "Early Q2", but was a response in 2022 (before Q2 of 2022), and it's now 2023 and this STILL does not work?

    Any hope in sight for an actual fix?

    I had this same issue on Win 11 22H2.

    I solved it with the following procedure:

    1. Open Regedit:
    2. Navigate to: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters]
    3. Create a New "String Value" with the following:
      1. Name: SearchList
      2. Value Data: {DNS SUFFIX} *Note that the Value Data can contain multiple DNS Suffixes separated by a comma (,). Replace the {DNS SUFFIX} with your information.

    I've noticed this appears to be fixed in a recent update. My build is now 22621.1778 and I now receive DHCP Suffix Search list from my DHCP Server.
