I think you have your terms mixed up. It sounds like you want to set up your Win2k3 server as your networks internet router to allow your lan clients to access the internet through the server

Install routing and remote access

Go the the connection wizard

Set up the connection as a NAT connection

point your clients to the server as its default gateway

yes i do may have them mixed up .

are you sure this will work for when i signin to my verizon dsl?

is there a site to explain this too me how to setup the domain and this NAT connection?

In almost all scenarios I have seen. DSL uses a modem. Most of the modems now a days offer configuration on there. In all scenarios I have encountered, I was able to set PPoE configuration on the modem and then point my gateway to modem.

In this case your gateway is your Win2k3Ed. So the first thing to do is to see if you have that option on your modem

Secondly, as far as the NAT connection. There are many articles on the internet as to how to do this.. however.. I have found that the wizard really can do a basic setup like this almost without fail.

ok do i have to put the sub mask and the ip address in the manual configure for my network card that has the modem on the NIC with gateway?

[chilifrei64]

that all depends on your internet connection. If it is dynamic.. you dont put in anything.. if it is static.. you will have to enter it.

[kurt476]

how do i check for dynamic ip address?

[chilifrei64]

it is whatever you purchased.. check your bill i guess... or set it for dynamic.. if it gets an IP then you are ok.. if it doesnt.. then you will need to find the address that they assigned to you..

Can I suggest something... buy a regular gateway.. Server 2003 Enterprise edition is essentially not meant to be an Internet router but meant for larger memory addressing for SQL Servers and for real high powerd network computing and is seemingly out of your range of knowledge..

If you purchase a regular gateway from the local BestBuy or CircuitCity it will auto detect your connection type, and configure your internet for you.. With mail in rebates you can find them for as little as $30 and you will have this thing working in a matter of min..

Otherwise I would suggest doing a little bit of reading on Server 2k3. I am not trying to be sassy but if we cant even get past the type of IP addressing you have.. this thread will be miles long when we are done.
