Resolving host name

[Guest Henry]

Two DCs run Windows Server 2003. XP clients cannot resolve a host name of a

file server which runs Windows Server 2000. I can PING that Windows 2000

server without any problem. Resolving host names of the DCs are normal.

 

What could have been the cause of the problem that I'm having. It used to

work before and I have confirmed the problem is not related to Windows

Updates.

Hello Henry,

 

Is the 2000 server domain member or standalone? Is it listed in the zones

of the DNS servers? Please post an unedited ipconfig /all from the DC's and

the 2000 server, additional from one XP.

 

Best regards

Hello Meinolf,

 

The 2000 server is a domain member and it is listed in DNS zones.

To echo Meinolf's request, please post an unedited ipconfig /all from this

server *and* one of the DCs & a workstation. ..
