Hello All,
I have an odd issue where I have modified my hosts file and it is not resolving correctly.
I have set up a Hamachi VPN network (Hub and spokes) so that my external sales people can connect to our web based CRM system.
When I put the IP address in IE, it loads up the webpage no problem. So far so good.
I associated that IP address in hosts file with the name of the server with an entry this looks similar to this:
25.111.111.111 svrapp01
For whatever reason, it will simply not resolve. I have tried some suggestions, like flushing DNS, replacing the entire hosts file with a new one, making sure it does not have a txt extension,etc - nothing works.
I need to get this figured out, as some of the pages do not load up with the IP address. The server end is Windows 2008 and the computer trying to connect is window 7 pro 64 bit, joined to the domain, but working from a field location.
Any thoughts from the Spicy collective?
