The address of our company www has been changed from IP.OLD to IP.NEW some 10 days ago.
All public DNS servers incl. that of our ISP do reflect this change.
Our DNS server running at Windows Server 2012 stubbornly translates to IP.OLD.
Here are all steps I tried:
- ipconfig /flushdns (at server)
- DNS Manager – Action – Clear Cache / Update Server Data Files / Scavenge Stale Resource Records… Restart
- Properties – Forwarders: change their order, restart DNS… (Note: There are two of them, both translate to IP.NEW correctly.)
- Checked there are no Conditional Forwarders etc.
Is there any way to force this DNS server to translate the address to IP.NEW?

Your local DNS server is configured with xxx.yy zone, and will never query public DNS servers. Just edit the www.xxx.yy record directly from DNS Manager.
