How to Configure the DNS in Virtual PC

DNS (domain name service) is a networking tool used to connect your computer to a network or the Internet. Although your regular computer might already be configured with the appropriate DNS entry, you will still need to perform the same task for your Virtual PC. A Virtual PC is a computer within your computer, made by using the Virtual PC 2007 tool from Microsoft. This is a basic procedure that can be done in less than 20 minutes.
