Windows 2000 Server DNS

[cjam4]

I want to be able to run my own DNS server. I am running Windows 2000 advanced server running the DNS. I am familiar with DNS and how it works, but I need help in setting it up. Could some give me some hints or perhaps guide me through? Thanks

This is for your internal network right?

Yes, as well as for some websites that I host.

I'm assuming you have a Static IP. If so you might want to go to NSIRegistry.com and register your nameserver.

Once that's set-up just go to your DNS service and add a new host (e.g. for a website you're thinking of hosting) in the forward DNS entries. Of course those domains should also be set-up to use your nameserver.

If you need more specifics just holler.
