Name server show internal IP

[Guest]

I host my own windows 2000 DNS, my name server is neo.remers.net, but it
shows my internal IP address of 192.168.0.95 when I run nslookup. How can I
fix my dns to show my extenal IP address?

Thanks for your help

Not quite sure if I understand your question but here goes..

Make sure that you have a reverse lookup zone that includes your external
address
Ensure that DNS is listening on both internal and external addresses
goto nslookup and type server=(external address of DNS server)
if this comes back with the correct info modify the order of your DNS
addresses from within your IP Settings in Network and dial up connections
and put the external address 1st

It appears that the server is doing DNS for neo.remers.net internally AND
externally. Is this correct? If so, it's time to understand the concept of
splitting the namespace - or using different servers to handle internal and
another one to handle external name service. I apologize if I misunderstood
you, but your message does not contain enough info for me to offer anything
more intelligent.
