this time around tech-heaven took some time to reload, i hope next on line is not tech-heaven
where does this dns issue reside
i did the ipcinfig /flushdns
and it came up with the message
windows ip configuration
successfully flushed the dns resolver cache
typed in news.bbc.co.uk
and it comes back with the server not found ...
www.bbc.co.uk has no problems
surprisingly tracert news.bbc.co.uk is "do-able" (10 hops)
i did a ipconfig /displaydns and it came up with a whole bunch of
record name ....... winmx.com
such as c3522.z1305.winmx.com
c3313.z1304.winmx.com
winmx.xoc
i could get to
www.bbc.co.uk
and it came up with record for
www.bbc.co.uk, however when i did the ipconfiog /displaydns a second time, the entry for
www.bbc.co.uk is not there
i did a flushdns followed by a displaydns and all the winmx entries are still there(other entries have gone)
