Now this is where I am getting slightly confussed. By 'server-IP' do you
mean:

1. The IP of our SBS Servers Internal LAN network card? In my case the
default of 192.168.16.2.
or
2. The IP of our Internet connection which could be either dynamically
assigned by our ISP or a fixed external IP address.

So what do I actually put in the wizard for preferred gateway and DNS?
