Hi, My DNS server show error icon. and the event viewer tell me like below. The DNS server could not open socket for address 192.168.1.170. Verify that this is a valid IP address for the server computer. If it is NOT valid use the Interfaces dialog under Server Properties in the DNS Manager to remove it from the list of IP interfaces. Then stop and restart the DNS server. (If this was the only IP interface on this machine and the DNS server may not have started as a result of this error. In that case remove the DNS\Parameters\ ListenAddress value in the services section of the registry and restart.) How can I go to romove it?

Hi, To remove the DNS\Parameters\ListenAddress value in the registry: Caution: Incorrectly editing the registry might severely damage your system. Before making changes to the registry, you should back up any valued data. On the DNS server, start Registry Editor. To start Registry editor, click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK. In the console tree, navigate to the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\DNS\Parameters Right-click ListAddresses, and then click Delete. In Server Manager, right-click the DNS server, click All Tasks, and then click Restart. If all the IP addresses for this computer are valid, make sure that no other application (such as a third-party DNS server) is running that might try to use the Domain Name System (DNS) port.

Press the ALT key, click Advanced, and then click Advanced Settings. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation. Click the Adapters and Bindings tab, and then, under Connections, click the connection you want to modify. Under Bindings for <connection name>, select the protocol that you want to move up or down in the list, click the up or down arrow button, and then click OK.
