How to create an External DNS Server using Windows Server 2003

Zones: Internet Protocols, Domain Name Service (DNS)

Tags: dns, external, server, windows, 2003

Hi Experts
I wonder to know on how to setup my own Public DNS server using Windows Server 2003.
I have ISP registered two records:
A record - 203.100.100.1
NS record - capnet.com

I have done basic setup of Window Server 2003 with DNS Server Service installed using IP: 172.16.100.1. The NAT is configured in firewall 172.16.100.1 <--> 203.100.100.1 with allow incoming traffics: HTTP, HTTPS, SMTP, DNS. Outgoing traffic policy is no restriction.

I created primary zone from Forward Lookup Zones. Zone Name: capnet.com
I created a A records mail1.capnet.com -> 203.100.100.1

I tried to ping 203.100.100.1 at home, it is successful. But it failed to ping mail1.capnet.com

I would appreciate if you could show me the way and correct my mistake
