Getting G5 to see a local Apache Server

I've got 1 solo G5 at work that needs to see the Windows 2003 server running Apache. Currently all the Windows boxes can see it by just typing it's netbios name in the IE address bar. The G5 however doesn't work like that. I can see it if i use it's IP address, but that's not acceptable cause the apache page is looking for it's name (not ip address) I added WINS service to the 2k3 box and set it up as a wins server. Added WINS lookup to the G5, but it still doesn't see the server by netbios name. What am i missing?
 
You might have better luck posting this in the Networking forum, but my first guess might be dns suffix configuration on the G5.
