Dial in customers unable to view websites and other problems

I just finished a new attempt at installing bind 8 and after running
into some problems I had to re-enable bind 4.9.5 so my customers could
have access to the Internet.
What happened after I installed it is this, customers were able to log
in, but they could not receive web sites. I thought this might have
been related to the fact that the domain that they authenticate to not
being properly set up after the install. So, I made the named.conf file
and added the zones to it as is necessary and made a few changes to the
zone files including the $ttl option. I then rebooted the server and
kept having the same problem. Then on a whim I decided to change the
tcp\ip settings for the dial up customers and specified the DNS servers
under Windows. That fixed the problem outright, the only problem with
this is that I can't change some 500 people tcp\ip settings! Does
anyone have any idea what might be causing this problem?
Second problem I'm having is that after I make the switch to v8 and
change over the zone files my domains quit working. I even redid the db
files on a few of them based on the the example but that had no effect.
Last question, can someone give me a hand with the script that is
supposed to change over the zone and named.boot files for me? I can't
find anything that will run it.
It seems to me that I must have configured something wrong in all of
this I just don't know where. I really do appreciate all the help that
people have offered to me over the past few days and I hope that I can
get this solved quickly.
Thanks
