IF all it is a DNS server then:
Go to Network Properties;
Properties of the NIC you are protecting;
Leave only TCP/IP selected;
Highlight TCP/IP and Select properties;
Select advanced;
Select the WINS tab;
Select Disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP;
Select Options;
Select TCP/IP Filtering Properties;
Select Enable TCP/IP Filtering for All Adapters;
Select Permit Only in all three boxes;
TCP add 53,1026,1027,1028,1029
UDP add 53,1026,1027,1028,1029
IP Proto add 6
Reboot and that is it.
You can verify it in Regedt32 by looking under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interf
aces\{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000} (the external interface)
RawIPAllowedProtocols:REG_MULTI-SZ:6
TCPAllowedPorts:REG_MULTI-SZ:53,1026,1027,1028,1029
UDPAllowedPorts:REG_MULTI-SZ:53,1026,1027,1028,1029
Now everyone is going to start bitching about what are the UDP ports for
1026 etc...... the answer is, I do not know but by playing around with this,
it is the configuration I got to work. I have 3 DNS servers running in this
configuration.
Also you can add 20,21 and 80,443 and IIS and FTP can run on them.

If it's a Win2K box....
In the Network properties of the NIC, double click TCP/IP, then click
advanced.
Under the WINS tab, select the Disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP. That should
do the trick.

Securing a Win2k DNS server outside firewall...
Hi All...
I have 2 Windows 2000 DNS servers sitting on the outside of our firewall.
They're vanilla installs of Win2k server, both running as member servers,
locked down as much as possible, running a primary & secondary DNS
configuration. When running a port scan against these servers, one of the
only things that tends to worry me is that they both answer to port 135
RPC.
I've tried to figure out a way to prevent that port from being available,
but all I could find as far as answers go is that I'd need to run a
firewall
to block it. I did try running a small firewall on the servers, but ran
into issues since DNS tends to use a myriad of dynamic ports when
answering
queries... Does anyone have any good ideas on how to lock down a Win2k
server like this so that the only thing available as far as services go is
DNS, and the replication thereof?
Thanks in advance for your advice...
Take care,
Mike
