Re: DNS Setup

I have a Win 2000 server,

Is this a domain or a workgroup?

Did you run dcpromo?

Thank you for any help in advance. I have a saying when it comes to a
computer network that DNS is the devil and it is probably because I just
don't grasp the concept completely. Here is my question.

I have a Win 2000 server, router, and workstations. My server is setup to
be a DNS server but I don't think everything is working right. My first
questions are:

What should the DNS address on the server, router, and workstations be set
to?
Currently I have the servers DNS set to the router pri, and internet DNS
sec. The router obviously is set with 2 Internet DNS addresses. The
workstations will not work unless they are set with the router as the pri
and
the internet as the secondary just as the server is set. I tried changing
the server to use itself as the primary and the router as sec and it was
not
able to browse. What is the proper setup? Thanks
