I have a small NT4+SP6a network with IIS4 and MS proxy server 2. The clients are all windows ME.

When I try to update the WPS on the client I receive a message Failed to resolve server name. This happens on all clients.

I can ping the server, checked the hostname, checked all the settings and I cant see any faults.

Anyone got any ideas?

Go to your network settings and check the IP for your WINS, DNS and other settings.

It sounds as if you have a wrong IP somewhere. But it might not be that simple. As another possible problem is to check your rights for these services.

Hope this even put you in the neighbourhood to solving your problems.
