Well, here is the rundown of what I am doing. This is my
first server setup from scratch, so please bear with me :)

I am setting up a new file server & mail server to replace
our existing ones. Both are W2K3 Servers - one with
Exchange 2003. I have the fileserver setup as a DNS
Server. I have the internal IP of the exchange server box
setup for DNS to point to fileserver. I then added in the
external IP under the additional IPs area. However, I
have 2 DNS server address that my ISP provided to me. I
am not sure if I need to put these in anywhere. On the
old server (WNT4 - Exchange 5.5) (I didn't set it up -
have just maintained it), they have it setup with Proxy
Server installed (not sure why - since we have a separate
proxy server that our internet goes through). Then, they
have the internal nic setup just with IP & the external
NIC setup with the public IP from our ISP & the 2 dns
servers provided by our ISP.

So, I don't know if I need to list the 2 DNS Servers from
our ISP somewhere on this new Exchange Server.

Point all your servers to your internal AD-integrated DNS servers.
Let the DNS servers resolve external/Internet DNS queries.
