tommyleenow · 07-24-2007, 05:46 AM

Does anyone know anything about repairing the TCP\IP stack for XP.
NOT the ip \release or renew commands.
In the Command Prompt.
SSC \ ?????

SSC \????
There are a few, all start with ssc.
thanx in advance

Johnwill helped me with a similar problem..

I suggest you do a proper repair of the TCP/IP stack.

TCP/IP stack repair options for use with Windows XP with SP2.

For these commands, Start, Run, CMD to open a command prompt.

Reset WINSOCK entries to installation defaults: netsh winsock reset catalog

Reset TCP/IP stack to installation defaults. netsh int ip reset reset.log

Reboot the machine.

So the ssc commands will be achieve anything?
One of my computers is getting a invalid Connection-specific DNS Suffix.

Lets re-word it.

So the ssc commands, will not achieve anything?
There reason I'm asking is, one of my computers is getting a invalid Connection-specific DNS Suffix. IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway are all normal. The only thing that is different is the Connection-specitfic DNS Suffix, which is only coming up with INVALID.
This only happen to the computer at question.
P4. 2.0 Win XP Pro.

Thanx.

Try manually setting the DNS for the computer...
And i dont know what ssc commands are and do..
I have had a similar problem which was solved by using the stuff in my first post.

Thanx Aus_Karlos.
Problems now resolved.
Thank again
Tom

FYI, the stack reset commands used replace all the TCP/IP stack and WINSOCK registry entries with the installation defaults. This fixes many instances of networking difficulties, which is why you'll see me use it so often.

Thanks again guys.

Oh silly question. johnwill What should I do, if the above DOES NOT work.

**johnwill** · 07-27-2007, 01:55 PM

Punt!

If that doesn't work, you call in the network heavyweights and we earn the big consulting bucks!
