Scratch that last post. That's what I get for reading the question after
answering it. I totally blew over that you were setting up a SharePoint
site and that you had followed Marina's directions Mike. Still sounds like
DNS is your issue, but you can ignore the rest of my post unless you want to
make a regular Website too while you are at it.

Time for bed it looks like...
