Might help if you actually TOLD US what the error was. And since it works from everywhere but Windows XP, it's probably a Windows related issue, and you'd get more help from a Microsoft forum, than Linux.

Since you don't give any details about what you've tried, have you rebooted/power-cycled the XP machine? It may not have flushed the DNS entries, and is running from old information.

Did you go to a command prompt on the XP box and do:

Code:

 > ipconfig /flushdns

>ipconfig /registerdns
