Re: Problems with changing from IP address to named host
2009-06-12 12:01:12
D'oh! I was pinging just the machine name and not the fully qualified name and it turns out it was a problem with the name service configuration file.
A line in the /etc/nsswitch.conf file needed to be changed from
hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4
to
hosts: files dns mdns4
Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction - I'm slowly getting better!

I think this is the place to start -- why is that domain name not
resolving on the client?
