Sorry, didn't see the loopback. I was just blinded by all the entries!
Then maybe I'm not seeing what the problem is with the error you're
receiving, DNS Resolver Cache no running, so sorry. But I know one thing,
when you restart the DNS client service, it loads the HOSTS file into cache,
so when you do a /displaydns, you'll see what's in your cache.
So sorry, not sure why the service may not be running, other than asking
what other errors show up in the Event logs. Is this the only XP machine
it's happening on? Were there any reg changes recently made? Were any
services stopped thinking thay may have not been needed? The services I look
for to be running for this are:
DHCP Client Service
DNS Client Service
When you try to start the Client service, what error is it giving you (if
any)?
And as far as this statement (from an earlier post in the thread):

No, it doesn;t get the cache from the server, but rather from it';s own
HOSTS file. If you are trying to load this into the DNS Server so it works
for everyone on the network, that won;'t work. The DNS server's own client
cache is it's own local machine's resolver cache. The DNS Server's cache
itself for the DNS services is a separate service. If you want to load this
whole list into DNS, then I would probably suggest to use DNSCMD to load
them by creating individual zones with resources all pointing to the local
host.
Sorry if I got off track earlier. I hope this post explains or understands
what you;'re trying to accomplish and the limitations.
