I have a Win 2003 Server that's a DC/DNS/DHCP server. Another Win 2003 Server that I've set up an INTRANET web page.

Everything works fine....on Win XP boxes, you can get the page by name (home.webpage.com) or by IP (10.10.X.X).

However, I have two Vista boxes that can't get the page. You can call it up by the IP, but not the name.

I've searched around and found the "ipconfig /flushdns" issues, but I'm still having issues.

Anyone else have this type of issue?

Be sure to check the dns entry, proxy pac, gateway, hosts file in vista

I read it wrong and answer it wrong too. So get off my case you peanut.
