Question : Ping server name returns wrong/old ip address

When trying to ping a server using the server name, brings up the wrong ip address. We have DNS, DHCP, and WINS setup in our domain. All workstations can resolve the server name with the correct ip address, but have a problem with one laptop that is connected to our domain.

Answer : Ping server name returns wrong/old ip address

Check if there is an entry in the host file and, if yes, remove it.

\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

I hope this helps
