www.superyoink.de is my clients' website. I can access it from any machine except my development one. If I ping it on my development machine, I get 80.67.28.107 - this is wrong.

I have a setup where one webserver (bar.com) is serving lots of subdomains, so it would be convenient to use a wildcard DNS entry. At the same time I'd like to use bar.com as search domain, so that foo resolves to foo.bar.com. The problem now is that if I set it up like this, foo.com resolves to the webservers IP if there is no foo.com...
I'm trying to programmaticaly determine the company* associated with a given IP address. My first guess was this : string hostname = Dns.GetHostEntry(IPAddress.Parse(ip)).HostName; but this won't work if the reverse DNS isn't set correctly, which seems to happen 90% of the time. However some websites are still able to successfully...

I've got some code here that works great on IPv4 machines, but on our build server (an IPv6) it fails. In a nutshell: IPHostEntry ipHostEntry = Dns.GetHostEntry(string.Empty); The documentation for GetHostEntry says that passing in string.Empty will get you the IPv4 address of the localhost. This is what I want. The problem is that...
Hi, Just wondering if there is any way to get the NS records in C#. I have read on the MSDN and there seems to be a DNS class that can return the host IP address. However, I am after the NS record type. Many thanks ...

Lately I've been tracking a spammer on craigslist. I recently discovered that he's added a new technique to his arsenal, he registered a whole bunch of domain names but they all resolve to the same ip address.

Hi guys, We have a cluster SQL Server and we use a SRV DNS entry to locate the service (i.e sql.mycompany.com). MyCompany.com_tcp_http Service Location (SRV) [0][0][1433]sql.Mycompany.com Now, how I can use the .NET SQLConnection to use this dns name (instead of the server name/IP)?
