Hi Dev, DNS stands for Domain Name Service. Most DNS errors usually indicate lack of a connection to the internet. DNS is used to translate human addresses (for example, www.bhcblog.com) into computer addresses (like 10.64.254.11) or A DNS error indicates that a web server could not be found at that domain name. A link might also be dead because of some form of blocking such as content filters or firewalls. You might try rebooting your computer and trying again. Or temporarily turn of your firewall and try that way. When you hit a dns error it usually means your computer cant get to the internet. If it only has the problem for certain addresses it means that either there's no entry for it or perhaps you mistyped it. A couple ways to fix this problem : 1. Try right clicking on the networking icon in the taskbar and hitting repair. 2. goto a command prompt (start --> run, type cmd ) and type : ipconfig /release then ipconfig /renew. 3. if you goto control panel and then network properties and you go into the IPv4 settings for your network adapter, you can statically set the DNS.. 4. If none of the above fix it, try a different machine, it most likely means your internet connection may not be up properly. Check cables and connectivity and make sure you are getting an IP address.. If you goto the command prompt (see step 2) and type IP config you should have an ipaddress. If the address begins with 169.254 it means you are not being assigned an IP address and you will not be able to connect until you get one. 5. And If you are not feel comfortable to do above things, I recommend you is to contact your internet provider for the best solution. regards Dr. Harshit Jaithwar Rathore Register for AccessIndia convention 2011(November 12-13) at: http://www.accessindia.org.in/harish/convention.htm Search for old postings at: http://www.mail-archive.com/accessindia@accessindia.org.in/ To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.
