I have w2k running AD,DHCP and DNS all is working great no errors anywhere.
However I can not get the clients of the domain to get DNS information from
the NAT Gateway. I can ping and open by IP but not by URL. I can get url
requested sites from by using IE locally on the server.
This all did work until I had to do a fresh install of the server.

Can someone please help me get this resolved.

NAT (from RRAS) doesn't do DNS resolution by default -- you must enable
that manually on the NAT properties OR put a "real" DNS server on the NAT
server.

You probably had it enabled before -- or you were using ICS which does this
automatically (and cannot turn it off.)
