Hello John, Thank you for your answer. Result to nslookup updates.pis.parallels.com is : ***** No Nameserver for adress : 10.211.55.1 Non existent domain ***** Default servers are unavailable Server : UnKnown Address : 10.211.55.1 Non authoritative response : Name : prd.geo.kaspersky.com Addresses : 85.12.58.3, 85.12.58.201 Aliases: updates.pis.parallels.com, downloads1.kaspersky-labs.com Hope this helps..
It is ok, for now look Virtual Machine for software which may block connection For example Zone Alarm, any other security software
In PIS, try going into settings>update>settings>update source>proxy server and uncheck use proxy server. This fixed my database update problems.
