we have a small business server 2003 , we update websites via the web and
ftp. during the day we will lose access to the websites we are working on. We
stop and start the dns and sometimes clear the cache and this seems to fix
the problem for awhile, we can make a few web edits or ftp uploads and we
have to do it all over again. also, we cant access some of our sites with a
www. in front of the url only the http://

Something wrong. This should not (ever) be necessary.

Are you using a forwarder by any chance? Forwarding to a DNS server
that is also forwarding back to you?

What are the exact symptoms when you feel you need to do this?
What problem are you solving?

exactly what happens is.... I edit a zencart or phpwebsite by uploading and
editing directly on the internet, or I am editing a css or php file in
dreamweaver and upload the changes via ftp. I can do maybe from 3-10 changes
ie: upload a file, an image, an item in a database via the web admin of
zencart... and then it is like my internet does not work anymore, but only on
the pages I am actively editing. I can access any other page on the internet.
You know how you get the "this page cannot be displayed" message?
Also, I cannot access any of our web pages using the www prefix from work,
but I can fine at home. Our web pages are hosted off site using a hosting
company, so they are not on the affected server.
