DNS Resolution problem

M

Hello,

I have a problem with DNS resolution with an XP SP2 Pro , I can't
connect to a web site with its address, ie www.google.com, but if I put
the IP address in the IE address bar I can connect to the web site.
I tried with ping command and it's the same, it just works with IP
address though nslookup works.

I installed MS Network Monitor to see what happens when I do a ping to
www.google.com, there are just five trames as you can see here :
http://www.cijoint.fr/cjlink.php?file=cj201002/cijGWREZn2.jpg

I did :
netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt
and
netsh winsock reset
I restarted the computer but it didn't change anything.

I looked at this page http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314053
my system sounds ok with theses parameters.

If I modify the host file (c:/windows\system32\driver\etc\host) and I
insert an entry for www.google.com for exemple, i can ping
www.google.com

I also checked my system with antivirus and antiwmalware, I did this by
putting the hard disk in another computer out of box

I also installed TCP/IP again on the network adaptator but any change.

I would appreciate any help

TIA

You said nothing about your DNS configuration and nothing about your
internet access configuration.

Do you use a router ? Then you should get your DNS server addresses from it.
Otherwise you should set your DNS server addresses manually.
Look at your TCP/IP properties:

My DNS configuration is ok. I'm using a router to access to Internet
which has a dhcp server that puts DNS ISP adresses to my PC. I tried to
enter manually my DNS addresses but it changes nothing.
As you can see on the snapshot that I took, there is no DNS requests
when I do a ping www.google.com

Areas to check:

Stop the 'DNS Client' service. This purely serves to cache DNS requests, and
is not essential. If it goes haywire it can cause name-resolution trouble. If
stopping it solves your problems, then disable it.

-Other software might have inserted a 'shim' into the IP stack. Apple's
Bonjour springs to mind, as does Google Desktop Search. If so, LSPFix may
reveal its presence.

http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm

-If you are using a router as your DNS source, it may have a broken DNS
implementation. Older D-link models suffer from this. Try setting the
computer to use the ISP's DNS servers directly. (Or, if you have a
Windows/Linux server onsite, try running your own DNS service on it, this is
often the best approach as it cuts-out the middleman completely)

Ok I stopped DNS client. I also did ipconfig /flushdns but nothing
change, i can't do a ping www.google.com.

Ok I tried it, it said No Problems found
In the Keep box, there are :
mswsock.dll
winrnr.dll
rsvpsp.dll

I also tried WinSock XP Fix but nothing change.

There are no Bonjour or Google Desktop Search or other software like
that in the computer but a 'shim' can have been inserted into the IP
stack since Kapersky Internet Security was on this computer. I
uninstalled it from the configuration panel and with the Kaspersky's
uninstaller. Currently, there are no Antivirus, no Firewall even the
one of windows since I desactivated it and no antispyware.
I scanned the registry and it seems that there is no entry of Kaspersky
in it.

I don't have a DNS server on my network, I'm using the ISP's DNS
server. I also tried the public Google DNS addresses which didn't solve
my problem.
As we can see on the capture, there are no DNS frames when I do a ping
www.google.com, there are just 3 nbtns frames so it's sure that the
computer can't get reply from a DNS server.
As there are just nbtns frames i thought that it could come from a
wrong name resolution order so I looked at the key :

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\ServiceProvider

but values are correct.

The problem just comes with this computer, if i try another computer on
the network, there is no problem.

Sounds like you've done all the right things, or close to it. I assume it's
ALL web sites and not just a select few you can't reach using the text
address?
The distinction is important because if some work and some don't, that's
just about a sure sign of malware at work, or maybe part of a DOS attack
you've been covertly brought into.

A few days ago, Verizon had an outage for several hours that interrupted
e-mail and internet services here in the northeast. Maybe DNS isn't working
correctly?
Try accessing the same sites from another computer but with one of your
own accounts at Verizon and see if it fails, too. Well ... Verizon or Yahoo
or MSN, whatever they've set up for your mail routes.

Quite a few different directions things could go here.

HTH,

Yes, you are right, it's all web sites. I just gave an example when I
used www.google.com
I don't think the problem is related to DNS server since none DNS frame
goes out of my computer

With other computers, I don't have any problem to get on Internet with
www.... address. The network is working properly.

Look under the Connections tab of Internet Options. Have you configured
any proxy servers?

no, none proxy server is configured

I tend to believe that the TCP/IP stack is broken and netsh int ip
reset ... doesn't fix it but why ? and how to repair this stack ?

I also tried to desactivate NetBios with TCP/IP. In this case, there is
no more frames in MS Network Monitor when I did ping to a wab address
(ie www.google.com for example). However nslookup correctly works.

Try running the Winsock XP Fix:

Does the behavior persist when you use other browsers (like Opera or
Firefox)?

Do you use a router? If so, how is it configured? And how are your
TCP/IP Properties configured? Did you enter actual IP addresses for your
DNS servers? Or did you enter other values (per your router)?
