Windows 2008 having to use FQDN??
I am working on moving an application from a Windows 2003 32bit server to a Windows 2008 R2 64bit server. I have pretty much everything working, but I am having issue with a web service getting DNS errors. I have to following url:
http://transflo/Transflo.WebService.Wse3/TransfloWS-wse3.asmx
On the Windows 2003 server the url resolves to the web service page perfectly.
If I use the same url on the Windows 2008 R2 server I get the following error:
"Network Error (dns_server_failure)
Your request could not be processed because an error occurred contacting the DNS server.
The DNS server may be temporarily unavailable, or there could be a network problem. "
If I changed the url to http://transflo.csxt.ad.csx.com/Transflo.WebService.Wse3/TransfloWS-wse3.asmx
the page will open successfully, but the application itself doesn't like that url (maybe a check back or a hard coded url). Is there a way to get around having to use the FQDN for this url?
I tried looking at the DNS suffixes and they look ok,
I can get the translo name to resolve via nslookup, just can't browse the page...
Any ideas?

I can ping it just fine via netbios
Have you tried adding the server URL to trusted sites or local intranet?

how would I add that to the site to zone list? *transflo or something else?

I put it in trusted sites and I am still getting the same DNS error message...

I also tried to put it in the local intranet and I am still getting the same error.

Anyone know? Is there a GPO setting that doesn't allow DNS resolution via http://servername ??
