DNS server stop to respond to queries

Zoran Zivotic

Hi From time to time I have a strange problem where DNS service
stop's to respond to clients reguest to resolve querie, for example I
can not connect anymore with nslookup but in procesess or services I can
see that DNS.EXE is still started and running.

Does anyone have some clue what might go wrong or what is going on ?

DNS is running on Win Svr 2003 Std. R2 32bit SP2

Can post a response you get with nslookup?
Have you checked that DNS is listening on the IP address you have configured
in TCP/IP?
Also, ipconfig /all would be very helpful.
