An interesting but frustrating thing occurred a few months back when I was creating a SharePoint WSS server installation at work. We had created an alias for the server but the name would not stick. You could browse to the server but whenever you clicked a link within SharePoint it would take you to the page with the name of the server in the URL not the alias. The same would happen when using the IP address, NetBIOS name, or the FQN.
Solution… the Alternate Access Mappings link within SharePoint Central Administration. Set up all the possible names that people may type into to get to a place within SharePoint and that name will stick.
