All servers and workstations should specify *only* the internal
AD-integrated DNS server's IP address in their network settings. The
AD-integrated DNS server should be set up with forwarders to your ISP's DNS
servers for external resolution. Don't use any external/public DNS server
IPs in any server or client IP config or you will run into problems.
See http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;300202 for more
info.
You probably want to start using DHCP to dish out the correct info
(including your DNS server) to clients, so you don't have to walk around and
manually configure all static addresses....
