abrogard 0 Posted November 4, 2002 Hi... I've a client machine on a small win2000 Lan here in China. The lan keeps on losing the internet but I discover that a programme busy downloading is still downloading - and a web page I have I can still refresh. But no new web pages can be found. Ping reports 'unknown name' on a name ping and times out on an IP number ping. The internet is effectively not there, but it is there. So I surmise the DNS server has gone down. That server is outside our lan I suppose. My question is: how can I check that this is really the problem. What might cause it. What can we here in the lan do about it - i.e. can we have our own dns server or something... or restart theirs? regards abrogard Share this post Link to post
