I have a dedicated box with an isp. Currently i use thier name servers to point my domains at and they then patch them thorugh to my server. Is it possible for me to do all this on my win2kadvserver box?
:cartman:

you can run your own name servers on win2k box no need to use your isp name servers.

well create name server/ns zone records under "dns settings" in windows 2000. I think you must have good knowledge of DNS otherwise you will not be able to make things running. Contact your isp and he will configure it for you.

for example
dns > dun > forward lookup zones > cphosting.com >
name = ns1
type = alias
data = servername.cphosting.com
