DHCP has nothing to do with name resolution unless DHCP is responsible for
DNS registration. Since your clients are all Win2k, it is not necessary for
DHCP to register for you, but the clients must point only to the internal
DNS server.
You do need WINS for Network places, but not for Active Directory. Network
Places uses NetBIOS broadcasts or WINS and NetBIOS broadcasts DO NOT cross
routers. If you do not use WINS, you will have to publish your shares in
Active Directory using the FQDN of the network servers. Then the shares will
be found in Directory Services. I would recommend a DNS server at each site
with the AD domain zone integrated into Active Directory. This won't help
Network Places but when Authenticating to the domain, DNS is where Domain
Controllers store their service location records. Unless it is done this way
you can expect very long start up and logon times.
