We just bought a new pc with XP Pro on it. We have a
server running NT SP6a. It logs on and connects and can
see the server, but I cannot get any internet connection
going. I have used all the wizards to no avail. It
obtains all of the IP addresses and DNS automatically.
We have 2 other pcs running XP Home that connect and work
fine. I ran network diagnostics on both types of pcs and
the new one keeps failing on the DNSServerSearchOrder
under DNS servers. They are using the same addresses
that the other XP pcs are using, yet they are failing on
the new one.
We have a TI connection directly into the server.
Has anyone had this problem or anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.
sounds like dns issue, what do you get if using nslookup command?

It comes up with the Default Server: dns.voyager.net and
the Address that is on all of the other pcs for the dns
server.

Ok, I take that back. Tells you what kind of day I'm
having, I did that on the computer that I'm using to type
these messages and not the one that's not working.
It isn't finding the servers. The server addresses are
correct, but it can't find it and the Default Server
doesn't have a value. Is there a place I can put the
default server, since I know it?
Thanks.
