Darryl,

I have Server 2003, so that's what I provided details for. I'm not aware of
drastically different interfaces between the two, that's not to say that there
aren't any though.

For Server 2003, the Forward Lookup Zone is a subset of the server itself, in
the tree view. There are 2 settings for the forward lookup zone.
# Dynamic updates permitted (none, secure only, secure and non-secure).
# Name servers - the server must point to itself as a DNS server.

And for the server itself, you need to specify your ISPs DNS server addresses
under Forwarders.

When you setup the server, did you create a forward lookup zone? Or did you
create root hints only?
