SBS2008 Sharepoint Setup

I just recently installed windows small business server 2008 and setup active
directory. Once I got active directory setup I then ran the internet
connection wizard and setup my domain name to be used with the server. All
went fine. When I go to http://companyweb or any other domain to access
sharepoint I am asked to login with my user credentials and once inputed I am
present with a page stating "The webpage cannot be found" giving a 404 error.
Does SBS2008 not setup sharepoint services to work from the get go? Am I
missing a configuration step? My Sharepoint Central Administration site works
just fine. Just companyweb does not work.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Alan A.

Best place to start would be to try running the SBS 2008 BPA and post any
results you are not familiar with or do not understand.

Check your DNS entries, maybe you just do not have companyweb record there.
what is being reported for nslookup companyweb

Ran the best practice analyizer and it did not come back with any errors
relating to Sharepoint. Any other things to try?

DNS resolves companyweb to 10.1.1.31 which is the correct IP for internal. It
also resolves the correct outside IP address when I use our public domain.

Also I wanted to add that if I go to the website
http://companyweb/default.aspx it gives me a 404 file not found. Is there
suppose to be a default webpage for the sharepoint site?

Is there a way to reinstall sharepoint in SBS 2008?
