Your Windows 2000 Server based network does not presently have a DNS Server installed for hostname resolution. There is an Intranet Web Server that hosts the company newsletter, which you must review on a daily basis. As a result, you configure your host file, in the C:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc directory with the following entries to allow you to browse the Intranet Web Server named HRWebSrv:

127.0.0.1 localhost
10.0.0.26 DigitalCompany.com
192.132.26.10 HRWebSrv
192.132.26.200 HRWebSrv

The network administrator has already assigned you the necessary permissions to gain access to the content hosted on the HRWebSrv.When you attempt to browse HRWebSrv using Internet Explorer, you receive a warning that the server could not be found. You use the ping utility to ping 192.132.26.10 and receive 4 request timed out messages. You again use the ping utility to ping 192.132.26.200 and receive 4 positive reply messages. What is preventing you from displaying the home page of the HRWebSrv?

A) Your machine has the incorrect Default Gateway assigned.

B) Your HOSTS file is resolving the HRWebSrv hostname to the incorrect IP Address.

C) Your network administrator has assigned the incorrect permissions to the home/default page of the HRWebSrv.

D) Your machine has the incorrect Subnet Mask configured to communicate with the HRWebSrv.

Good luck everyone - answer later tonight!

B) Your HOSTS file is resolving the HRWebSrv hostname to the incorrect IP Address.

Explanation: The HOSTS file is parsed for name resolution from the top down. As a result, if there are two entries for the same IP host in the HOSTS file, the first entry found will be read. In this case, the HOSTS file has the host name with an incorrect IP Address identified. This is the IP Address that is then used for name-to-IP Address resolution. There is no further attempt on the part of TCP/IP to read the second entry for the same host upon the failure of the first entry to provide communication.

Good job everyone - and rus, I still have to disagree with you - looking up the answer is not cheating - it's learning!!!!!!!!!! Don't be so hard on yourself!
