Updating DNS (nameserver) - how to

[imported_KuJaX]

I have a domain that I changed nameservers on about 6 hours ago. On all of my computers but the one I currently am on right now will successfully bring up that domain and all of the contents (browsing around, etc). However, this computer says "connection refused".

I assume it has to do with the new DNS and/or nameserver and that the old one is still cached on this computer. I did "ipconfig /flushdns" but that didnt seem to do it. What else should I do/try?

edit: Solved - Rebooted the router and machine and all went well. Weird that some of the computers on this router worked and some didn't.

Is the machine that isn't working querying the same DNS servers as the ones that do?

did you clear your browser cache?

when I type "ping <domain>.com" with this machine, it shows a different ip address than the other machines.

Just did (also tried it in several other browsers)

Could it be a host file problem? (I'm a newb)

I would reboot the router and my machine...

Make sure Windoze Security Updates are installed. YOu might have a virus or malware.

Was literally just typing this.

Standard procedure after a /flushdns.

/flushdns, then rebooted router and machine and seems to be working now. Thanks
