Use the DNS management console, expand and open the forward lookup zone for
xyz.com, if there is a host record named "www" make sure it has the correct
IP address, if it does not create the record.
Make sure all local clients use the internal DNS server ONLY, no ISP or
external DNS servers are allowed in TCP/IP properties, in any position, on
any interface, in an Active Directory environment.
