Wesley,
Okay I went through the prescribed steps and still have the same problem. I can reach the website from the DNS/Server machine, but not from the clients.
Could it be something with DHCP server or what?

Wesley,
That helps, except for one thing. I am utilizing our server, and we only have one, as the name server. If I change the forward lookup zone to the internal address, it does not resolve correctly for external clients. Do you have this same type of setup?

Am I missing something here?
I'm not sure if it is the same problem. I am using DHCP and am sending DNS, Name Server, Domain to the clients and the network works great.
The problem is that the forward lookup zone for www points to our external address. This address, when viewed from the inside does resolves to the...
Alright, here is the problem.
We have a Windows 2000 network setup to host our email and website. DNS has been set up as the primary name server for the network and all is well with external clients.
Internally, the name get's resolved to our public IP address and comes up with a "This...
