Hi Mark & Dave,

Sorry for the delay in response, I've had many other things falling apart
outside the office so my time has been limited here.

I still have to try the reg edit for "IsDOmainMaster", (which is funny since
I tell everyone else to do it....) but otherwise Things SEEM to be OK. All
DNS listed IP's are internal numbers and anything that looks like its server
related has a server IP associated with it.

I've checked all the services and they all check out as legit. The binding
order is correct. Do you think it could be related to Microsoft Knowledge
Base Article - 292822 ? I don't really have any of those explicit errors,
but it does suggest it could screw up DNS.....

Sorry for the spotty replies....Thanks again.
