SBS2003 IP Change, DNS

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

I have just recently changed the IP address of the server and created a new
scope in DHCP using the change IP wizard. The process went without error.
My problem now is my client computers cannot locate the server (DC, DNS, DHCP)
by name. I can ping by the new IP but not by the server name. Needless to
say all mappings and profile are directed by server name. I think the
problem falls in the DNS area, but I have looked and looked in DNS, DHCP
(scope option 006 set to server IP), and WINS, all with no success.
