I just got Win2k with AD running on the network(in mixed mode). We just received a new server "Svr06". This new server is already joined with the network with a static ip address and the address of the current DNS server(local. It does not get an internet connection. I have pinged internally and no problem but, of course, when i ping a web site or our ISP's DNS servers it times out. The local DNS server lists the new server in the forward lookup zone with the correct address so I really don't know what went wrong.
