         Ok, here's the fix that worked for me.  Specify in your hosts file 
the name of your machine and its network name, then the name of each 
machine on the network and its network name.  Do this for anything that 
normal DNS, either internal or external, that won't resolve through normal 
DNS lookups.  AKA: Machines with no DNS info, or machines on an internal 
network.  Here's a good example of what I'm referring to:

192.168.0.65            myserver.mydomain.com myserver
192.168.0.172           workstation1.mydomain.com workstation1

         There's fairly decent examples on how to do this in your hosts 
file already.
