The few times I had symptoms like that I had to run a winsock reset to get the machine working again. I could run dos tools all day long but as soon as I tried to use IE or Firefox, nothing would work.
>From a command prompt, type "netsh winsock reset" and then reboot. Info from NETSH Help Remarks: Resets Winsock Catalog to a clean state. All Winsock Layered Service Providers which were previously installed must be reinstalled. This command does not affect Winsock Name Space Provider entries. -----Original Message----- From: tech-geeks-boun...@tech-geeks.org [mailto:tech-geeks-boun...@tech-geeks.org] On Behalf Of Chris Janssen Sent: Friday, September 17, 2010 10:32 AM To: tech-geeks@tech-geeks.org Subject: [tech-geeks] DNS and internet resolution...anyone seen this? I've got an issue on one machine that is about to drive me crazy. We've had some issues with connections, dns, etc, but are working through those. However, even when everything is running well everywhere else, I have a machine that when you do an nslookup it resolves just fine (beautifully in fact) however when I try and go to any EXTERNAL webpage, it simply wants to point back to the main webserver. I'm so confused on this one. Anyone seen anything like this or have any ideas?
