We have a VB.NET 2.0 application running as a service on several servers.
All are either domain controllers or member servers. Service runs under
domain admin acct. Has been running for several years.

The apps start every 15 minutes and attempt to download from the same web
site. The apps have recently begun to time out at different times, with one
connecting after 2 tries and another taking 10 tries. The log files report:

Is the Web site's IP not static?. Why do you even need a www look-up with a DNS to even com-up with the IP? Why not use put the IP in a config file and use the IP to the site, instead of doing a DNS look-up. You can also use the Hostfile that will hold the www.whatever.com = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx IP so the machine's O/S never goes to DNS to do the look-up for the IP. The O/S will go to the Hostfile first, before going to DNS.
