I've just found out that nswserver.com isn't registered: Code: whois nswserver.com Whois Server Version 2.0 Domain names in the .com and .net domains can now be registered with many different competing registrars. Go to http://www.internic.net for detailed information. No match for "NSWSERVER.COM". >>> Last update of whois database: Thu, 29 Jun 2006 17:31:11 EDT <<< NOTICE: The expiration date displayed in this record is the date the registrar's sponsorship of the domain name registration in the registry is currently set to expire.

Then you must set up a DNS server in your LAN and tell your client PCs to use this DNS server. On that DNS server you can then create records for nswserver.com. You can use any FQDN or IP address that points to your server.
