<Sigh> That's what I thought. The real issue seems to be the server
can't find itself. It's complaining that it can't find the old address
which has been completely removed from DNS and /etc/hosts. I am also
getting the same from NMC. The server is Red Hat Linux, clients are
both RH and Windows. I use FQDN throughout the Networker configs.
Version is 7.3.3. We use DNS, but my configs use files first, then DNS.
I've checked forward and backward lookups. This may seem like a dumb
thing to do, but we wanted to upgrade to 7.4.3 anyway. Since I'm going
to be doing configuration, may as well start at the beginning.
