installing NW6 server inside router (NAT network) DNS problem

[hellbeach]

I´m having trouble installing a NW6 server at home.
My home network is NAT:ed with only one real IP to the internet and when I install my NW6 server I have to give the machine a name and then a DNS server which will resolve this name, how do I resolve this without having to set up a DNS server of my own ? I tried registreing a dynamic DNS like mynovell.ath.cx (or something like that) and giving it the ip 192.168.0.2 (which is the ip of my NW6 server in my network) but this doesn´t seem to be enough for nw6 to start. It hangs on startup when it´s trying to resolving the name for 192.168.0.2

Can someone give me pointers to what I´m doing wrong ?

You don't have to specify a DNS server during the install. You can skip over it and that should work just fine. Based on the Netware 6 book, setting up DNS is an option.
