IIS ip problem

[drctx]

i've got a IIS server named k8 with a dynamic ip of xxx.xxx.xxx.101 and a static ip of xxx.xxx.xxx.13. when i ping the server using the server name k8 i get back the 101 ip address. but when i enter k8 or ip xxx.xxx.xxx.101 into internet explorer the web page doesn't show, but if i enter the static ip xxx.xxx.xxx.13 then it works. i would like the page to display by using the server name k8.
any ideas about how to fix this?

thanks,
Doug

we figured it out. some how the ip xxx.xxx.xxx.101 was asigned to 2 computers and for whatever reason wasn't getting an ip conflict. but changed the ip to a free one and now it's working with the server name.
