How can I keep a connectivity when the DNS server is not available?

We have remote locations with several computers that are joined to our domain via a gateway to gateway VPN. When VPN breaks down, they lose the connection to our CD/DNS server. Their ip addresses remain the same, since they are managed by their local router but they failed to connect to other devices to their location even though the devices have static IP addresses. If I understand the use of the LMhosts file must allow me to allow them to keep local communications between computers. I think the entry in LMHOSTS should be like this for each local machine they need to access.

Is there a better way to solve this problem, however?

  • How can recover my Skype account when the customer service is not response yet in 24 hours?

    Dear friend,

    I can not connect to my Skype account, but I changed the password. I contacted Skype customer service and signed a form. The customer service said I would reply with 24 hours. But I still don't respond after a day still.

    What should I do? Just wait? I need my Skype account to communicate with my clients. I can lose my job if I lose my Skype account. Please, a good man trying to help me.

  • Cannot connect to the local file and print when the domain controller is not available because the network connection

    Hi all
    Having problems for local users, connection to a file and print server in one of my satellite offices.

  • Unable to connect with the DNS server

    Recently, I went away for the weekend and came back to find that I had no internet, on all devices... So I don't know exactly how long he was out. I'm a computer and a network engineering student and I've tried everything I can think of to make it work again. Here's what I did:

    First off troubleshooting generates an error message: "failed to connect to the DNS server.

    Of course, I did reboot of the habit of my router and my devices.

    I can't connect to WiFi or direct connection via Ethernet. I tried flushing DNS via the command-line ("ipconfig/flushdns") as well as the command "netsh int ip reset", "ipconfig/release" and "ipconfig / renew." I tried to go into the settings of the network adapter and the two affecting the IPv4 and IPv6 DNS google DNS settings. I even traded my router for a new with my ISP (of Roger (Canada)). I have connected to my router through my web browser and tried to change some of the DNS settings there (everything went well). Nothing worked so I have everything set to default. I tried ping around my own network, I ping my own card NETWORK, but also the entry door, so I know that's not my PC, I have also excluded because all my devices do not work. I spoke with Rogers (my ISP) twice now and they were no help at all, they were more concerned by the flashing lights on the router as the real problem. I'll have a technician to the course to watch tomorrow, but I doubt they'll be any help at all. I wouldn't say I'm a computer genius, but I have a pretty good understanding of how things work and I can not understand what the problem is here, I can have forgotten something or forgot to mention something I tried. But if anyone has any ideas, or similar cases they decided that I would be VERY grateful for the help.

  • NLB - the RPC server is not available on the specified computer. To connect to the < Server >

    Have a Windows 2008 R2 SP1 NLB service two nodes on VMWare. Bothe nodes have two network cards. Internal one dedicated to NETWORK load balancing and the other for the network.

    Management console of NLB on a single poster NLB node is in good health. The two nodes are visible and OK.

    Management of NLB on the other node shows only its own node - while the other node is missing. An error when updating...
    "The RPC server is not available on the specified computer. "otherNode.com" connection error"

    I disabled the back loop check - it makes no difference.

    Any help please?

    I think I solved the problem...

    As I wrote previously, I disabled the back loop check in the registry on both nodes, create a new DWORD (32 bit) key...
    HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\DisableLoopbackCheck - with a value of 1

    Then, I made sure that the link speed & Duplex on all network interfaces are set to a specific value (no Autonegotiation), for example. 1000 Mbps Full Duplex (in my case).
    Ideally only the NIC - on each node - connected to the NETWORK load balancing must be configured with hard values.

    This solved the RPC error in my environment of NLB.

    Hope this helps those who have the same symptoms.

  • Unable to connect to the internet, the dns server is not responding

    Hello

    It is the second system I've seen in the last two weeks with this question, I reloaded the OS on the first.  The system is Windows Vista Ultimate x 64.

    That is the problem.  Open Internet Explorer 9 on a Windows 7 PC, you get the message:

    Internet Explorer cannot display this webpage

    Click on diagnose connection problems, you get the following:

    The DNS server is not responding

    Look at a detailed information your told to contact your network administrator (this is me - no other XP or Windows 7 PC on the network has a connection problem).

    Below that is the message:

    Your computer is trying to use a DNS server that is incorrect or does not exist.

    Note that this is a laptop that has started on another network with the same problem.  I took it to my office to solve problems.  My DNS server is a WIndows SBS 2003 server.

    Below that is a log file of etl you cannot open (Notepad considers undesirable, much of the use that is).

    The steps I did to try to resolve the problem.

    Virus system scan

    There is no hosts file, I've recreated which.

    The static value IP and DNS.

    I can ping the DNS server by its IP address, but not by name.

    I put the DNS address to 208.67.222.222

    Windows IP configuration

    With success, emptied the Cache of DNS resolution.

    Method 2:

    Try the following steps to release and renew the IP address and check if it helps.

    a. Click Start, type cmd.exe in the start search box, right-click on CMD.exe and run as administrator.

  • The DNS server is not responding.

    Just bought this WRT160N a few days ago, I implemented and no problems now, randomly, I can't the internet to work, every once in awhile, he will work for a few minutes, then it will return new.  When I troubleshoot Windows, I have "the DNS server is not responding" * detected * this computer is located on a wired connection to my router, and is currently the only computer connected to my router.  The connection works fine when I run the cable directly from my modem to the computer (which im doing now) any help would be greatly appreciated!

    To upgrade the firmware of your router, you don't need to be connected to Internet... Just connect the Modem to the computer and download the firmware on your router... Once you have downloaded the firmware on your router... Connect the Modem to the router on the Internet Port and connect the computer to the router Linksys on Port n ° 1... Follow the instructions I mentioned in my previous post, how to upgrade the firmware on your router... Once the firmware is upgraded successfully... Press and hold the button of reset for 30 seconds... Release the reset button... Unplug the power cable from your router, wait 30 seconds and reconnect the power cable... Now re - configure your router...
