Observation - The virtual hostname is registered in DNS and it is resolving without any problem.
What command are you using to test the name resolution?

But, when I was trying various options, I figured out by adding the following entry to 'c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts' file in my Windows XP client, it works fine.
implies that name resolution is possibly not ok

You will need to consult your system admin to check\complete this for you.
One thing to check on the client is the DNS search suffix list on the NIC advanced properties, ensure that any domains you need to search are listed here
