How to Set Up Split DNS (7 Steps)


Go to the Windows server computer hosting the pages and hostname for which you want to create a split DNS. Click “Start” and enter “Services.msc” in the search box. Press the “Enter” key. The Services window appears on the screen.
Scroll down to the “Domain Name Server (DNS)” listing. Double-click the service name. In the DNS Properties window, click the “Startup type” drop-down list and select “Automatic.” Click the “Start” button, then “OK.” Restart the server computer and wait for it to boot into Windows.
Click “Start,” “All Programs,” “Administrative Tools” and then “DNS.” In the server list, right-click the name of the Windows server machine, and then click “Properties” on the popup list.
Click the “Forwarders” tab. Add the IP address of the remotely hosted machine on in the “All Other DNS Domains” area. This causes regular HTTP requests from outer-world network computer to redirect to the IP address of the server hosted by your hosting provider or ISP. Click the “Add” button.
Enter and add additional ISP IP address as needed. Click the “Apply” button to save the DNS changes.
Click the “Internal NAT IP Addresses” tab. Enter the IP address of a server computer on your network hosting Web services meant only for internal use or viewing. For instance, if the computer is on the same internal network, you might enter “192.168.0.2” or “10.0.0.2” depending on the IP scheme your network uses. If the services run from the server computer on which you are working, enter “127.0.0.1” in the field and click “OK.” Note that if the service uses a specific port -- for instance port 118 -- enter the local IP address in the “192.168.0.2:118” format.
Click “Apply,” and then restart the server. Wait for the server computer to restart and boot into Windows. Setup of the split DNS service is complete.

How to Turn Your PC Into a Web Server (7 Steps)


Click the 'Start' button, and then click 'Settings', then click 'Control Panel'. Note: Some versions of XP don't have a 'Settings' selection on the Start menu; they just skip straight to 'Control Panel'. The main point is that you want to get to the Control Panel.
Double-click the 'Add or Remove Programs' icon.
Double-click the 'Add/Remove Windows Components' icon.
Click the Internet Information Services (IIS) check box. Please note: Some versions of XP do not have IIS available. If you don't see the IIS check box in the 'Windows Components' dialog box, your computer simply does not have that capability.
Select 'Details', and then click the check box entitled 'World Wide Web Service'. Then click 'OK'.
You will come back to the Windows Component dialog box. Simply click 'Next' to begin the installation process for IIS.
There you go! You have officially set up your PC as a web server! Make sure to test it with a basic ASP test page to ensure that it's serving the page properly.
