Hi guys, my windows xp virtual machine is throwing up this spurious error.
DNSAgent.exe failed to load component. The application failed to start because DNSSD.dll could not be found. Has any one encountered this? I'm running vmFusion 3 with the current vmware tools installed. My guest OS is windows xp pro sp3. I've tried re-installing the network driver. That didn't work. I've tried re-installing vmware tools, nothing doing. I've tried crying but this computer never has been known for a sympathetic bent. I've tried google searching, and it seems that ODSAgent is some apple cd and dvd sharing business. Unfortunately that was the most useful thing I got. Everything else was registry cleaners and dll download sites, most of which looked even sketchier than trying to muddle along without dns support on windows. Just to see what would happen, I pinged google on the mack side and got the current IP address for www.google.com. When I put the ip address into firefox in my windows vm it gives me the google homepage, so I have internet access, but apparently DNSSD.dll is part of something windows uses to resolve dns and so as long as I have the website's IP address I can connect, but if I just type in a www, it doesn't go. If any one has suggestions on how to fix this, my appreciation would know no bounds.
