Man I hope someone can tell me what I did wrong! Here is the layout:

Internal Network running 192.168.x.x address
New 2000 network in place.
DNS Resolved names internal to the network address space (192.168.x.x) all
was well.

And Then.....

I connected the new network to the Internet. DNS is being hosted remote by
the ISP. All host records I needed have been mapped to legitimate external
addresses, the Netowrk firewall is direct mapping external and Internal
addresses as needed and port as required no problem.

The Problem...

My mail server is not resolving internally since connecting to the internet.
It will not correctly register itself on the local Win2000 DNS server,
recieving error Event ID: 5781, 5774.

I can only browse the internet internally if I reference the ISP Resolvers
instead of the local DNS server. If there is any additional information you
need please let me know.

Thank you for any and all assistance.

Ray M.
