Hello,

I own a server that houses DNS. I use this server to ping other server and client machines. However, no machine can ping my server. Because of this, clients cannot ping the server and server cannot ping client systems. Moreover, I cannot share files from my computer to any other. What could have gone wrong?

Thank you.

Hello techyv,

I have a Netbook with Windows CE 6.0 Embedded. However, it fails to pick up any signal from my wireless router. As a fact, when I try using the net, it results in a DNS error; that is server not found. What could be the problem?

Thanks in advance.

I just got a laptop a month ago– a brand new Samsung with Windows 7 installed on it. The wireless feature is built right in. I use a rather unreliable router with a reliable ISP and everything works fine. This morning my internet worked fine but about an hour after I used it wouldn't connect. When I clicked on Diagnose and Repair, I got this message:

There may be a problem with your Domain Name Server (DNS) configuration.

Windows failed to find the well known host "www.microsoft.com" using DNS. The server may be down.

The internet works absolutely fine for both of my roommates, and even when I plugged my laptop directly into the modem I got the same problem.

 Please, help on this.

I have recently pointed my domain to a big commerce store and so changed my email settings to match the new instructions given by BigCommerce. I am not receiving all my emails, if I open my old computer with the original settings I find emails which I hadn't received with my new email settings. has this happened to anyone before and know of a solution or does anyone have ideas about how I might ensure all my emails come to one inbox. It appears as if only emails from certain people are getting through and others are going to the old settings. Almost as if the DNS settings haven't properly propagated fully. Ideas –

please help
