You may have a couple of problems, do this:
Make sure the "." Forward Lookup Zone is deleted in your DNS server You can
add a forwarder to your ISP's DNS if you want, in any case point all
machines including the server to the private address of the DNS server for
DNS in TCP/IP properties *only*
On the interfaces tab of the DNS server properties set DNS to listen only on
the private IP address
For your Nethood to work you need to have NetBIOS enabled over TCP/IP on the
WINS tab of your TCP/IP properties
In the Network and Dial up connections Control Panel in the Advance menu
select Advanced Settings
Make sure your private network interface is at the top of the connections
list and that File and Printer Sharing and Client for Microsoft Networks are
enabled and bound to TCP/IP and that TCP/IP are at the top of the binding
order if you have multiple protocols installed.
