bullet Posted January 7, 2005 Posted January 7, 2005 I have a computer that is able to ping and browse anything inside our domain. My problem occurs only when I try to access the outside. I get nothing. I've reinstalled the NIC, tried a brand new NIC. I've uninstalled and reinstalled everything in the local area connections properties. I'm thinking that something is messed up with my TCP/IP stack. Any ideas
mattofak Posted January 7, 2005 Posted January 7, 2005 Please tell us more, is this a domain that was recently set up, do you manage the domain, what OS are you using, did the domain work before?
bullet Posted January 7, 2005 Author Posted January 7, 2005 Another thought is the sockets since it is only outside access. Winsock maybe?
bullet Posted January 7, 2005 Author Posted January 7, 2005 The domain has been in existance for a while. All the other 499 computers dont have a problem just this one computer. Just a note: If the topic is posted inside a Windows XP forum it is implied that Windows XP is the OS
^_^ Posted January 7, 2005 Posted January 7, 2005 could it possibly be a firewall issue?or maybe the sysadmin is playing a joke on you and blocked access outside the network because he has noticed your computer ip is constantly on the internet instead of working
mattofak Posted January 7, 2005 Posted January 7, 2005 ya, check out what security software you have running, and also contact your sysadmin...PS back) there are many many version of windows xp
bullet Posted January 7, 2005 Author Posted January 7, 2005 If I login as the Domain Admin the same thing occurs
mattofak Posted January 7, 2005 Posted January 7, 2005 it doesnt matter who you login as, its the computer, its probably blocked at the server/router from access the WAN. If your the domain admin, check out your gp settings, your dhcp settings, your routing settings, your computer group settings, and then if you still cannot get online come back and talk to us...and for bloody sakes, do you have winxp pro(assumably) with sp2? check out the firewall settings!, also, do you have a proxy enabled?, maybe you need some tunneling settings/proxy password settings!
bullet Posted January 7, 2005 Author Posted January 7, 2005 I can ping the IP of an outside source ie google. Nothing is blocked and it is not security software. I've tried dhcp and a static ip both return the same results. DNS does not seem to work at all in the outside world.
mattofak Posted January 7, 2005 Posted January 7, 2005 You either have DNS servers listed in your network configurations that you don't need, or you dont have the DNS servers you need in your network configurations... most likely the latter, your domain probably has its own dns server running, so you will need the IP of that most likely, check out the configurations of the other working pcs in your domain, and see what there settings are, that might help isolate whats wrong!
^_^ Posted January 7, 2005 Posted January 7, 2005 better scan for virii and adware alsoFixed oopsie->http://housecall.trendmicro.com/start_corp.asp for viriihttp://www.lavasoftusa.com/support/download for adwareyou never know, I've seen adware do some strange stuff
mattofak Posted January 7, 2005 Posted January 7, 2005 thats true, they do do strange things... ^_^) http://houscall.trendmicro.com/start_corp.asp doesnt work!in the meanwhile, you could use the avert stinger http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/[EDIT]^-^. you missed out the 'e' in housecall!, thats why it doesnt work!
bullet Posted January 7, 2005 Author Posted January 7, 2005 The setting are exactly the same. I can ping my DNS server. It is the only one in the list
bullet Posted January 7, 2005 Author Posted January 7, 2005 I've ran Symantac Antivirii Corp Edition with newest defs. Ran Adaware, spybot, hijack no results
