If that doesn't work, Can you hit https://companyweb ? How about
http://localhost? https://localhost?

If the DNS settings are out of whack on your clients, you can check the DHCP
service options and make sure the DNS servers option is set with the server
address.

Remember to go to a command prompt and do an "ipconfig /flushdns" and
"ipconfig /registerdns" to make sure the new info gets through to the
client.

Please set the workstations to use the SBS server itself as their only DNS
server, this should take care of it.
