implement the registry changes and other mods from KB292822 , the update

I have a Win2K SBS at host site. It is also my DNS server for all
workstations.

I have two remote sites (4 PC's at each site) that connect via hardware
VPN.
All remote PC's have server's IP address as their only DNS server.

When I ping the server by its name in DNS from one of the remote
workstations, I should get 10.1.1.1, but sometimes I get 10.1.1.33 (I
think
it is from the RRAS ip range) or the server's public IP address (it has
two
NICs).

I do ipconfig /flushdns, and it may come back with any of the three
possibilities above. The same is true for nslookup. If it comes back with
the
public one, the Exchange client will fail.

This may be Exchange-related (i.e. how to get the client to work when the
DNS name resolves to the server's public IP address) or it may be
DNS-related
(how to get my server to quit handing out its IP address to DNS clients
except its primary LAN IP address.
