You can fix a "DNS Server Not Responding" error by resetting your internet connection and computer. If the error keeps appearing, you can also flush your DNS cache ...
I'm having a problem getting DNS working within a native 2000 environment. DNS will not pass a query or a recursive query against the DNS server. I opened ports 42 and 51 on my router without success.
DNS server isn't responding,' 'DNS lookup failed,' 'NXDOMAIN' and 'DNS resolution timeout' are just some of the possible ways your browser or internet-enabled device tells you there is a DNS failure.
