Yes, I switched the cables to the NICs, and then reversed the
TCP and other settings.

From a workstation, I can ping the server using its name, or
IP address. From the outside world, I can also see the server
via IP address, but outside DNS hasn't updated yet, so by
name from outside is still going to the old address.
Internally, using normal network protocols, I see nothing of
the server, AD, or anything.

After a meal of Ham my brain is a bit fuzzy [just ran home 'cause
Dad's on dial up and his a/v expired and I'm getting a new version
remind me to buy him DSL for Christmas]

All I know is we can't just 'move' the nics we have to tie the
services/what not to a loopback, then remove the nic, then put in a
new nic and transfer to the new nics.

do an ipconfig/all and see what it sayson the WINS tab is Netbios
over tcp/ip bound to that internal nic?

What WINS tab? The only WINS tab I know of is under the TCP/IP protocol
properties for the NIC, and all it has is a box for WINS server addresses.

The home SBS/dual nic server [okay so no comments from the peanut
gallery regarding server/domain names]

I'm assuming that's the two IP addresses there?

Now with the caveat that the only way I know is the SBS way which is
point inward for DNS and then you do root hints/or forwarders, if this
was a SBS box I'd be telling you to get rid of that 154.11.128.187 on
the internal nic.

See how our DNS points inward on both nics? But I'm not sure how you
have yours set up.

I forwarded you the screen shot of the WINS section of the tcp/ip
where there's a little check box to enable netibios over tcp/ip. Mine
are checked for that inside nic.

Enable NetBios over TCPIP is enabled.
