This is neither a DNS or DC it is a simple application
server running the Siebel v7.0. Also, on the private LAN
configuration the checkbox "Register this connection's
addresses with the DNS" is unchecked. On the public NIC
this box is checked. The network named "VLAN" is the
private network.

As requested, ipconfig:
