I installed W2K server on Compaq's DL380 and promoted to AD successfully. However, when I check DNS from MMC, Forwarders tab and Root Hints tab are greyed out on DNS server's properties window. Does anybody know what is causing this problem and how I can fix this

Thank you very much for your help in advance.
 
This means you have a root zone in DNS. This is causing the server to think
it is a root server. See:

A very quick search of the KB found the above article.
