Windows 2000 Server - DNS conditional forwarding

[George Samuel]

Hi

I am trying to setup Conditional forwarding for a specific
Intranet domain as under:

Private domain: localnet.pvnz.com
Lookup DNS server: 192.168.100.15

This is a private address and is accessible on the private
subnet.

However, when I go to the
DNS\Servername\Properties\Forwarders\ - I encounter the
message: Conditional forwarding is not available because
thus server is a downlevel server -

and it displays under DNS Domain: "All other DNS domains"

Can someone please tell me, how a win2k server, can be
setup for conditional forwarding for specific (private)
domains, and forward all other queries to a public DNS
server.

Thanks in advance

George

Windows 2000 does not support this feature. Apparently it looks like you're
using the DNS snap in MMC (or the admin pack installed) from W2k3 to look at
this W2k DNS server.

No. No-one can tell you that.
