Hi,

When I give ipconfig/registerdns after ipconfig/flushdns, it gives me error
that The system cannnot find the file specified.
And on client side nslookup is not working. What and where is wrong?

What does this have to do with NSLookup (or really even with
DNS for that matter since the issue is that IPConfig is not being
found.)

Check your path (by typing "Set Path"), IPConfig.exe is in System32
and this should ALWAYS be on the command line path.

Fix in SystemControl Panel advanced if it isn't by adding:

%systemroot%\System32

Not working how? What happens? What command are you
typing exactly?

Start the DHCP Client service.
ipconfig /registerdns forces the DHCP client service to register in DNS, if
the service is stopped, you get the error.

ipconfig /flushdns clears the DNS Client cache.

Neither of these have anything direct to do with Nslookup because Nslookup
bypasses the DNS Client cache.
