Those names have no meaning or use for any of your clients. What those
names allow is that FROM YOUR i you can telnet, ping, ftp, whatever to
either of those four names and still end up at 192.168.0.1.

If your windows clients truly are using your i as their dns then you
should be able to

- do this from your client
Start, Settings, Network Connections, Local Area Network, Properties and
see how it obtains the address of the DNS. Granted I haven't quite
grasped getting the address of your DNS automatically.

- do this from your client to check out the configuration on your server.
Start, Programs System i Access for Windows, System i Navigator, Network,
Servers, DNS and actually see something in there. We have one lpar
serving up dns for our dmz and beyond. The rest of our DNS' are Windows
based.
