Add the name host name of your NT PDC and its static IP the LAN side of the network to your 'hosts' file, as well as any LAN-side static IP's that you need to connect to for any services. Is your NT PDC providing DNS and WINS support? If so, you may be able to use DHCP to provide both to your laptop. If you have problems resolving host names on the WAN (Web) side, you may have to add the DNS IP of your ISP in 'resolv.conf'.
