I get internet anywhere, i.e. all workstations as well as backup server. I
don't get the internet from machine in question (main svr).
ipconfig /all =
Windows 2000 IP Configuration

Primary DNS Suffix . . . . . . . : LA.loc

DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 199.223.150.38
199.223.150.39
199.223.150.2
Primary WINS Server . . . . . . . : 199.223.150.38
the 38 ip is the main svr and the 39 ip is the backup server. I believe that
38 hosts the AD.
I also successfully pinged the domain controller both by ip and by name.
