Can't see my own domain from inside...???

Klark
Ok, probably an easy fix to this, but I sure as hell don't know what it is. My local domain is lotl. lan. All of my clients log-in to lotl. lan, or the Netbios name of LOTL. Also, I'm hosting with IIS from here, on a second server here within our lan.
