Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows how to change the port that the windows 2003 DNS listens on. I want to have this machine behind NAT and its kind of a long story of what and why i want to change it but id like to change it. I found a MS KB article on how to do it in the registry but it only applies to NT 4.0. Any ideas or suggestions? Some of my friends have done what I want to do with linux and id like to do it with windows.

Welcome :)
I have no idea, but do you have the MS link for the NT solution?

Have you tried it in XP?
Backup the registry and create a System Restore point.

XP doesnt come with a DNS server, only IIS which offers HTTP and FTP.
