What does nslookup on the clients show?
If you try pinging internal names with a "." at the end (e.g. clientA.),
does it resolve then? If it does, you may have suffix issues. Try adding
your internal domain names to the "append these DNS suffixes..." option in
TCP/IP. Then net stop and net start dnscache and test again.
Lastly, since you have multiple DNS servers, it would be helpful if you
could describe how they are configured, both in TCP/IP and in DNS
properties.
