NetBIOS over TCP/IP NBDD Stopping Internet Access? |
|
|
Hi,
Yesterday one of our engineers was messing with DHCP scope options, and
decided to enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP NBDD (option 46) for some reason. At
the time no one noticed any effect. However, this morning people who were in
the office yesterday, but who were out the office today, found that they
could not get internet access. It seems they can resolve IP addresses, but
not names. They can't ping yahoo.com, but can ping the ip address of
yahoo.com.
We're not too sure how to fix this problem. We've disabled the DHCP scope
option, but it doesn't seem to make any difference.
Internally, we can get net access, and we can ping yahoo.com. Some of the
external people, have been able to VPN in, and can then get net access,
however, once they disconnect the VPN again, the problem comes back.
Does anyone know how to fix this? Or why this scope option would cause such
problems?
Cheers
Ben |

I suspect the DNS is broken (whcih would explain why name resolution
has stoped working), try reseting the DNS (settings and all).

Hi Sparda,
I've tried adding the DNS entries manually, then doing ipconfig /flushdns
then /registerdns, and also rebooting, but neither worked. My laptop has the
problem now also. I got home from work, and tried to connect to my home LAN,
and it won't open any web pages, or ping any sites. Only way I can get
external access is to VPN into the office, and work off that LAN.
My home LAN has a netgear router that acts as a DHCP server, issuing IPs &
DNS, the machine I'm working from now works pefectly, but my laptop next to
me, running through the same router, will just not resolve external names!

This now has me stumped! I have tried adding specific DNS servers, rather
than allowing DHCP to issue them. I've disabled NETBIOS over TCP, and
released/renewed IP then flushed/registered DNS. I've even gone as far as
using netsh to re-install TCP/IP. Nothing works. The only way I can get to a
web site, is to enter the IP & hostname is the hosts file, I can then browse
that site. However following any links off to another webserver then brings
back the same old page can not be displayed error. I've gone though the
"checking connectivity for windows xp" artical on MS support, but everything
appears to be fine.
I'm lost! What else can I try, beside re-installing 15 users laptops??

In that case, I would say that what windows is doing is trying to use
NetBIOS to resolve domain names, which obviusly isnt going to work
(since netBIOS is for computer names, rather than domain names) but,
unfortunatly for you, i am clurently clueles as to why windows would
do this. |

Its has some troubleshooting info in cases where you can't access websites

Hi,
We're not using ICS, everyone seems to be having the same problem, even
though some people are using ADSL modems connected via USB, and some are
ADSL connected to network routers. When everyone is in the office we're all
connecting though a firewall, and web access works. Eveyone's home
connections WERE working, until this 1 change, which has now been removed.
I'll have a look though, it might shed some light, or offer possible
solutions.
Thanks.

Although a bit extrem (not to mention very risky) you could try
disabling the WINS server, making sure the WINS server isn’t
specvified in the clients, and manualy specifie a DNS. |

First. Although I can't say for sure what the problem really is,...I do
think that it had nothing at all to do with the change to the DHCP Scope. I
think there is a totally different problem/cause that waht you are chasing
after. I believe the the tech that made the change just happen to be
unlucky enough to make that change at the same time that another problem
started and he is getting the blame when it may have nothing to do with him.

Why does the main NIC say the cable is unpluged and it has no TCP/IP
Settings at all?

How can there be two PPP Adapters running when the Physical Nic has the
cable unplugged? I guess they will run if they are Statically Assigned with
their TCP/IP Specs. Anyway, You can only have one Default Gateway per
machine. If you have more than one you will get all kinds of stupid and
strange behavior.

The second one's a VPN connection. I'd guess that it runs |
over his connection to BTOpenWorld. My guess is that he's
given us the gateway machine's ipconfig.

Like Philip says, the *ethernet* appears to be disconnected. |
However, assuming that this was not the problem, (and that
you had disconnected for some reason) can you post the
ipconfig /all for one of the clients?

Cliff

I
think there is a totally different problem/cause that waht you are chasing
after. I believe the the tech that made the change just happen to be
unlucky enough to make that change at the same time that another problem
started and he is getting the blame when it may have nothing to do with
him.

I'm beginning to think your right. After removing the scope option the error
still remains, and as I said in the post to Cliff below, the error seems to
be that when you try and resolve a host name, it's trying to contact our
internal DNS server, and not the user's ISP's DNS servers.

Hi Cliff,
This is the IPconfig of one of the clients. I believe this particular person
uses a USB modem, to connect to BT Openworld, then initiates the VPN
connection over that connection. The disconnected Broadcom 44x network card
is the users in built LAN card he uses when in the office, but not at home.
I think this may have something to do with DNS. I ran ethereal on my laptop,
and found that when I tried to PING yahoo.com it was trying to resolve that
against the company's internal DNS server, not my ISPs DNS servers. Even if
I change my connection and specify the DNS servers manually, rather than
letting it pick them up from my ADSL router. Obviously, as our internal DNS
server isn't accessible, it fails. This would also explain why net access
works when the user connects tot he VPN.
