General questions of the Win2000 DNS admin tool

[Guest]

Running a win2000 domain. We have 3 sites with 4 domain/dns servers. Servers
1 and 2 are at the main office. Servers 3 and 4 are at different locations. I
have one zone for the entire company. There are only 150 workstations.

My dns admin tool looks like the following.
DNS
<IP of server 1>
<IP of server 3>
<Server2name>
Why are there IP names for the servers 1 and 3?
Should server2 name be the FQDN?

Regards,

Depends on how you added it to the MMC. You can remove them and add
them back as FQDN's if you wish.

How do you delete? Also, are these zones?

If they're what I think they are they're not zones, they're links to
your other servers. You can remove them by right clicking and delete.
