Don't configure clients, the DNS servers do this. Just point the
clients at a couple of Windows 2000 DNS servers (If you must use
AD for DNS).

Assuming your ".com" domain is delegated from the root servers
correctly the W2K machine will look this data up in the normal
way. You could act as a private secondary of the UNIX servers
domains if your concern is performance or reliability (Not going
to the Internet to look up data held locally).

Just because a box queries the Internet for other DNS data,
doesn't mean it need answer queries from the Internet. Firewall
carefully, firewall well.
