In so far as I can tell, the server was initially set up for a smal group of 5 people with the server performing DHCP behind a cable modem. It is set up as the only server and PDC.

NAT I'm sure has to be managed here because routing is not being managed elsewhere. DNS is resolved by the server. Server is So I can find my way around in server , but am unfamiliar with its capabilities and how to implement a simple policy like this.
