If you have the host record on your dns server, then you need to check
that the record is still there and correct. You can use nslookup to query
against your preferred dns server to see if it is the dns server you
expected and/or if it is responding and resolving names. Ipconfig /flushdns
clears the cache for the dns client resolver - not the server, even if you
run that command on the server. To clear your dns cache zone you need to run
the dns management console, under view make sure detail is selected. Then
find "cached lookups" zone, right click and select clear cache. --- Steve
