I've had a miner running for about a week now with no problem, but this morning it just started reporting the following error:

SOCKET ERROR - [xmr-eu1.nanopool.org:14444] CONNECT error: GetAddrInfo: No such host is known

I have no idea whats causing it, but my machine can connect to the internet just fine and resolve the pool website. I also rebooted and tried flushing the dns which have done nothing.

I also have a second miner on the same network thats working just fine.

Any ideas?

That indeed looks like a DNS error. One thing you can try is swapping the FQDN with the IP address to confirm it's somewhere in the DNS resolution. I've had to do that on a couple large pools.

In other words xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:14444
