I use DNS made easy for external dns. &nbsp;I had a record pointing to a server in my environment from DNS made easy. &nbsp;It was working fine. &nbsp;Now i have moved the location of server to the cloud and changed my DMSMadeeasy. &nbsp;I can ping the IP address from my network, but cannot ping the web address. &nbsp;I removed the old record from my internal dns and have waited about 7-8 days for it to clear. &nbsp;I continue to get &nbsp;&quot;Ping request could not find host www3.advance-trading.com. Please check the name and try again.&quot; &nbsp;If I edit the host file on my pc and put in the IP address where the web address points it will work. &nbsp;Any ideas how i can fix this so i don't have to edit host files for everyone?<br />

Stale DNS Issues

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.

Windows Networking

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical, globally distributed system responsible for associating the name of a computer, service or other resource into an IP address for connecting to the Internet or a private network. Most prominently, it translates domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for the purpose of computer services and devices worldwide.

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
