I get no response as if the server (dns) doesn't exist.  I can't ping or

firewalls but our NetAdmin thinks otherwise. -- Thanks.
If Apache has nothing in the error log and nothing in the access log, and it 
works sometimes but not other times, then it's not Apache.  There's something 
wrong with your network, firewall or DNS.

If your network administrator has disabled ping and traceroute, then he's a 
bonehead.  How can you adminster a network with the primary diagnostic tool 
disabled?  Some admins think (incorrectly) that disabling ping somehow makes 
the network more secure.  They need to go back to school.

But that's a topic for a different forum...

get an immediate "refused connection" message? What exactly is happening?
