can’t get XP pc’s to www.roadway.com

by and_the_beat_goes_on . Updated 21 years ago

This is the strangest thing I have run across in some time. My XP clients, cannot get to 1 site, which is www.roadway.com. We are still an NT server shop, we use our ISP as our DNS. XP Firewall is turned off, IE Security settings set to low for troubleshooting. Machines all seem to be on SP2. They are all relatively new Dell’s of one flavor or another mostly optiplex. My Win2K PC’s have no problem at all. We don’t use any group policies. I do have a websense server, but even shut that down to see if it was the problem which it wasn’t. These XP clients can get to every other site they try except Roadway. We cannot ping roadway or the IP addy from these machines, but we can from the 2000 pc’s. If we put the IP addy in the XP url, then we can get there. (But we still can’t get to quick shipment tracking which is where we need to go.) Basically these machines just come back with DNS error, check your settings page. Any ideas of what to try next??? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
