Make sure you have no entries for Nexus in the hosts or lmhosts files.

When I try and ping nexus, the IP address it is pinging is an external IP that has nothing to do with my network. However, when I run NSlookup (without specifying anything - i.e using default nameservers), and type nexus, the correct IP is returned. Why are these results differing? Surely they would both have to perform the same lookup with the same default name server? Thanks for your help Matthew Dendle ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=isalist ISA Server Newsletter: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/newsletter.asp ISA Server FAQ: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Visit TechGenix.com for more information about our other sites: http://www.techgenix.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this ISAserver.org Discussion List as: davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=isalist Report abuse to listadmin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
