I need the last part of your machine id, mine is 'msnv1.occa.home.com'. You need to take this and make it your DNS Suffix.

Or just do this: Ping yourself. Make sure to put C:\ping -a [your ip]
C:\>ping -a 24.1.129.123

Pinging cx145644-a.msnv1.occa.home.com [24.1.129.123] with 32 bytes of data:
The msnv1.occa.home.com is my DNS Sufix.

I am on win2k:
C:\>ipconfig

Windows 2000 IP Configuration

Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : msnv1.occa.home.com
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.4
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.1
I think 'videon4309' is probably your computer name, your dns suffix comes after that videon4309.xxxx.xxxxx.xxxx.xxx
