This is my first set up of SBS 2003 (Standard) and although the
internet connection works OK there are a lot of the following errors
generated. We are using 2 nics with an adsl modem/router on one and the
lan on the other.

Event Type: Warning
Event Source: DNS
Event Category: None
Event ID: 7062
Date: 31/01/2006
Time: 17:48:41
User: N/A
Computer: SERVER1
Description:
The DNS server encountered a packet addressed to itself on IP address
192.168.16.2. The packet is for the DNS name "www.microsoft.com.". The
packet will be discarded. This condition usually indicates a
configuration error.

Check the following areas for possible self-send configuration errors:
1) Forwarders list. (DNS servers should not forward to themselves).
2) Master lists of secondary zones.
3) Notify lists of primary zones.
4) Delegations of subzones. Must not contain NS record for this DNS
server unless subzone is also on this server.
5) Root hints.

ipconfig /all on the server gives:

I ran the wizard to set up the connection but I could only get internet
access if I added the ip address of the router into the forwarders in
Services& Applications\DNS\Server1 manually. I suspect my setup isn't
quite right, can anyone help?

Thanks
Rick
