You will have problems if your external nic is pointing to your isp
dns. You will have problems if your internal nic is not at the top of
the binding order. I name my nics internal and external. No chance of
screwing up binding order then.

You do the edits in the 292822 article. Even if you are not having the
problems your server will do better as it prevents the problems from
ever happening.
