if this is the configuration, try ot ping with DNS server. if that ok then check with nslookup and see what is getting. are you able to recieve server name and ip address.
if that is not working then configure your DNS Suffix in the client.
check with this..MCT,MCSE,MCSA,MCTS, Server Administrator

Is the server a SBS 2008 server? If so, I suggest you confirm if Windows Small Business Server 2008 Update Rollup 3 is installed.
