new website dns issue, simple resolve maybe?

In the address bar, I need to be able to type 'companyweb' and get to
192.168.1.1, and 'newsite' into the address bar and get to 192.168.1.2. But
currently when i type in 'companyweb', some computers on my network actually
go to 'companyweb' (192.168.1.1), but most go to 'newsite' (192.168.1.2).
This is even after client computer restarts and temporary file deletions. I
have no idea why this is happening, and this is my first time having created
a new site. All details of my setting are below. Can someone please help??

Box:
SBS 2003 Standard

LAN IP:
Primary - 192.168.1.1;
New Created Secondary - 192.168.1.2;

DNS:
Host (A) - 192.168.1.1 --> 'server01'
Alias (CNAME) - s01 --> 'companyweb'
Host (A) - 192.168.1.2 --> 'newsite'

[IIS] companyweb:
IP Address: 192.168.1.1
Identities -
1) IP Address/192.168.1.1; TCP Port/80; Host Header Value/companyweb
2) IP Address/192.168.1.1; TCP Port/80; Host Header
Value/companyweb.myserver.local

[IIS] Default Web Site:
IP Address: (All Unassigned)
Identities -
1) IP Address/Default; TCP Port/80; Host Header Value/

[IIS] newsite:
IP Address: 192.168.1.2
Identities -
1) IP Address/192.168.1.2; TCP Port/80; Host Header Value/

Re: new website dns issue, simple resolve maybe?

Sounds like a name resolution issue on your clients - not an IIS
configuration issue.

On your clients, please do (in a cmd window):
ping companyweb
ping newsite

and verify that they are resolving to the correct IP addresses. If they are
not, ensure that they are pointing to the correct DNS server, and flush the
DNS cache: ipconfig /flushdns

Cheers
