Description

[Timothée Besset]

I'm getting a "The connection was refused when attempting to contact ...." Alert
box, can't connect anywhere
my tree / build is up to date with 02/16 8:46 (nmake /f client.mak build_all
with VC6)
seems it's win32 only?

I think it's DNS related
if I enter http://www.mozilla.org it fails, but
http://207.200.73.41 loads fine
Otherwise my DNS works fine ... I checked with nslookup
I'm using a NT box, SP5
I'm not very familiar with bugzilla, but I did a query for DNS bugs in the last 
few days:

maybe you guys can find this bug is related to another one?
I think it may be this one: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27496

Some more comments after investigation:
I'm behind a firewall .. however netscape works fine without proxy settings. If 
With mozilla I can connect to a local http server (on our LAN), but if I can't 
connect to any server accross the firewall.
I've attached a log of nsSocketTransport: first I try and fail to connect to 
www.mozilla.org, then I try to connect to my second box ttimo.dyndns.org (which 
can only be reached from inside our network)
hope this helps
