Computer names

I hope someone can help with a small problem( i hope)

I have a windows 2003 machine setup as a dc, file and dns server in a domain.
There are 17 machines connected to it that were all named after the users. I have 
since changed the names to workstation01 - 17. This is all fine but when i look at 
the shared folders mmc and look under the sessions folder all the computer names 
have the new name but some have .mydomainname.com after them others just have there 
( i assume) netbios name.

When i look under DNS all the computers are shown with ther new names.

Has anyone got any ideas as to why this is.

Thanks
    Gareth
