I have a NT network where the nodes receive IP addresses
and DNS automatically from the server.  I bought a few
Dell Dimension pc's with  XP Pro on them. They worked
fine with the server giving them their IP address and
DNS, but after a few weeks they could no longer access
the internet.  They could only see the internal network
and to solve that I had to manually input the DNS
entries.  Can anyone tell me why is that? I'm confused
since they work fine for sometime.  Thanks

>Did anything change on your firewall?  Are you using
Proxy Server?  If so are the clients configured
correctly?  Is the internal DNS server set up to use a
forwarder for name resolution on the internet?

Nothing changed in my firewall which is only a small
symantec box to stop hackers, no rules or anything. I'm
not using a proxy and no forward address for DNS.  It's
funny it only happens the Dell running XP Pro.  My Win98
workstations are fine.
