Dan,

    You show the external DNS numbers on your external nic. That should be
the ip of your internal nic.

    In DNS, you right click your server name. On the forwards tab you'll
see the box at the bottom. That is where you add the external DNS servers.
It should show All other DNS domains on the top window.

    The interfaces tab should show the ip of your internal nic.
