Subject: [MSUNAG] Sigh... A new Windows XP problem
So I have a user who said his networking was blitzed on his T500
Thinkpad running XP. After having him rip out the network drivers and
having Windows reinstall things, the IP stack is working, except for
DNS. DNS does not work. The DHCP data is correct, and in fact I've
used a static address for DNS, but it doesn't work. This problem ocurrs
for both the wireless card and ethernet card, so its not in the drivers
but in the stack or just above it and I can't figure out a way to fix
this. Googling for it reveals many people who can't seem to enter IP
addressed correctly, but not my problem. This is the first time I have
ever seen part of the stack blitzed like this.
A ipconfig /all says that there was a registry probllem reading tcpip,
so I'm pretty sure there is deep trouble here.
I'm making a backup now of the machine so I can rebuild it.
If anyone can come up with interesting ideas when thats done, I wouldn't
have to rebuild.
You have two hours. ;-)
T H A N K S for any ideas.
