We have a web application which uses the command:
System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetResponse()
It has been working well for a few years, but suddenly, a few days ago, we saw that it began generating the following exception:
System.Net.WebException: The remote name could not be resolved
There have been no changes in the code, nor in the server configuration.
A similar question was asked on StackOverflow, but the solution there had to do with a proxy server, which our server isn't.
Strangely, the application does work in localhost, where our pc's use a proxy. But our production servers - that are in an outside network - stopped working...
