I have NAT setup on my w2k advanced server. I am using AD so I have DNS and
DHCP also running. All seems to be working just fine. However clients
looking to the server as a gateway and DNS do not get DNS resolution. I can
ping the internet IPs and I can browse sites by IP but I can not get domain
name resolution.
If I enter the ISP DNS server IPs into DHCP or directly to the clients it
works. I know this is ok but I know that my server should be passing the
DNS information without having to do it this way.

Can you help me to figure this out?

Thanks,
Bob
 
Have you got options 003, 006 and 015 set in DHCP-server, Scope options? Do
you have W9x, ME or NT4-clients? In that case you need to install
WINS-server and add options 044 and 046 (0x8) to Scope options as well.
Does the ipconfig/all from the clients show that everything is pointing to
the server-IP?
How many nics in the server?
