company web in SBS2008 client

Just launched a classroom for a customers house training and today none of
their clients will go to http://companyweb/

Everything was fine until today. Was there an update that applied to cause
this like they did in SBS2003??

They intend to train in sharepoint and I am giving the staff a walk through
in 10 minutes. Please help!

Make sure that the client computers are using the SBS box for DNS.

Last weekend I had a NEW SBS 08 install have the DHCP Server service
stop as well as the TS Gateway service... Started them manually and they
kept running - rebooted the server and they started up properly.

Thanks but that did not work. I wonder if I can/should do a complete server
restore to fix it?

See if Sharepoint SP 2 got installed on the server.

Thanks so much Chris that worked! Not sure what I was doing wrong but I
could not find that document.
