I am now able to reach my local network. The problem now is that my resolver is not working as explained in another post but to recap - I noticed that my resolv.conf got wiped out having previously set it up, and I re-entered the information, restarted network and resolv.conf seems to remain unchanged. But nslookup still fails to locate cdkkt.com domain nor does are the nameservers found nor are host entries resolved. Help! No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
