Dns Forwarding Question

[RichyBell]

Hi guys, I am new to this so please bare with me, iv setup our DNS fine and internal names resolve and everything looks fine, I have a question though when I try and ping say Google it does not resolve it, so I presume I need to setup a dns forwarder, iv logged into our proxy server which is provided by our local authority and got the dns entrees from that but Im a bit stumped on what the process is of creating a actual DNS forwarder record in the forwarding zone.

 

I hope you understand what I mean if not please ask me anything and Ill do my best to answer.

Right-click the server name in your DNS console. Go to properties and then choose the Forwarders tab. You can enter the ns servers to use for forwarding thing and/or select the checkbox to use root hints if forwarders are not available.
