Hi

I'm upgrading the NT server to Win 2000 server but When
Instaling the win 2000 server It ask me for the DNS
server Name how can I define it

And how can I choose the IP for the DNS, which way I can
proceed? I think the Active directory will not work if I
do not specify the DNS?/???

Thanks

Specify the DNS server on your network. If the DNS server is the machine you
are installing AD on, then specify that machine. You will need to setup a
DNS server if you do not have one.
