I have an internal webpage in my corporation. I have a PC
that when you type in the name for that webpage it says
it cannot find it. However when you type in the IP addy
of the server it resides on it goes right to it. I have
checked and unchecked bypass proxy, I have put the name
in the exclusion list. All other PC's in my LAN can hit
it just fine. I updated my DNS both primary and
secondary. I have flushed the DNS on that PC, I have un-
installed 2000 and re-installed the PC with XP. Me being
a domain admin, it won't even let me goto the website. I
have even changed nic cards just incase the mac was a bad
mac. I am att a loss. Any Ideas you might have would be
great. TYIA

If you can reach it by IP but not name, and others can reach it by
name, it's Name Resolution, nothing else. Do you have a hosts file?
Have you done a NSLookup on the naame to see what you're resolving?

Yes I have it setup in DNS as a host and also running

nslookup all the information comes up correctly
 
One thing I just discovered is that if I type in the full
distinguished name such as http://webname.domain name.com
it will come up easily but when I just type in http://web
name it does not come up like it always used to in the
past.
 
maybe you just need to setup the "append DNS suffixes" setting in TCP/IP
advanced properties of the Local area connection.

Hello Phil,
Is the workstation's browser configured to use a web proxy? If so, name
resolution should be handled by the web proxy server. If not, I would
suspect a hosts file on the workstation.

I hope this helps.
