help needed for dial-in server

[m.w.chang]

I tried.

both "server" and "server.mydomain.org" didn't resolve into IP when i 
used the nslookup on the win2k station. i could `telnet 192.168.2.1 53` 
from win2k to the linux without error, so the dns port are not blocked. 
Ftp 192.168.2.1 worked, too. I could browse google.com via her IP. SO 
iptables shouldn't be an issue (unless I missed something).
