I dstup your DNS to be the same as your ISPs. then have your server has secondary dns. that might work!
 
but 202.101.172.37 is the ISPs,10.0.99.2 is set by myself,I only want do install a alone dns server in my intranet LAN
 
well you need an external DNS connection that will propagate other domains to your DNS which means you need a secondary DNS to do so and some way for other dns servers to exchange information wityh your dns.
 
I really dont know ive never done it Ive used dns appliances and the like never hand done it :( I'm sure you can find it off microsoft.com or Ill find it if you want!
