Outllook 2001 on macs to Exchange on Windows 2003..Not connecting

C

This is the setup.
Microsoft Exchange on Windows 2003 server.Server is running Appletalk
but Exchange requires TCP/IP connection.
Macs running in OS9 and OSX use Outlook 2001(classic in the OSX mac's)
When you first connect to the exchange server setting up a profile,
you can enter the IP address and resolve the name.Outlook then works
fine for about an hour and then the mac's freeze.
Also if you restart the mac and then try and connect to the Exchange
server you cannot connect.Now the Exchange server is also the DNS
server and i have heard that Outlook cannot resolve by Ip alone and
needs DNS, so.....
Does this mean that i have to have the DNS entries in the TCP/IP
control panel of the DNS server(not the ISP)?? Also is there anything
i may need to do on the search domains etc.

Thx in advance
