I can´t get access by www just by ip address

[Ely]

In my windows 2000 server with sp4, i cant´t get access by

http://www in

internet explorer/firefox, just by ip address.
I put two dns number of my provider in network properties (tcp/ip), these ip address are ok.
Sometimes when I type access some site like

http://www.microsoft.com

although vey slow , but I get access.
but in the most of cases the browser returns message:
it´s impossible to resolve the name of system to destination

http://www.xxx.xxx.xxx.

If I type 200.xxx.xxx.xxx it return the page of site no problem.
In the prompt ping ip adress OK, but ping

http://www.xxx.xxxx

not ok.

Someone can help me?

This is an DNS issue, is the internet connected directly to the server oris there a router in place?

 

[Ely]

Yes, my server is connected directly to the internet. I don´t use any router.

OK I guess the I need your configs on how you set up the nic on the server, also are you running a domain?

nic properties
IP Address
Subnet
Gateway
DNS Servers

gateway 192.168.200.254

What device is at 192.168.200.254?

I'm Certifiable, not cert-ified.
It just means my answers are from experience, not a book.

192.168.200.253(server)
192.168.200.254 (adsl modem)

Don't you just point DNS back to your ADSL modem and let that sort it out? Or am I thinking of Cable setups?
