Messenger loses server connectivty
Running Ver 5.1.0639 on a Corporate LAN with a SIP server. Throughout the
day, Messenger seems to lose its connection to the SIP server. I am not knocked off line, but messages to me are bounced back to senders, and my messages are bounced back to me. Intermittently it signs me out and immediately back in. After the sign in, things are OK for a short time. If I have an IM dialog with someone for any length of time, it seems to maintain connectivity, but if IM activity stops, then my connection appears to fail again. Out of thousands of users, it seems only a handful of users get this. Corporate IS guys seem to think this is a DNS issue. I'm looking for confirmation that DNS configuration would have this affect on Messenger (no other network applications appear to be affected), and if any one has clues to a fix. I've tried uninstall/reinstall, editing HOSTS file with the SIP server name and IP. This has been consistently occurring for about 6 months, but its driving me mad since i'm pretty dependent on IM in the corporate environment. |
