[BackupPC-users] can't ping 'client'...sort of...
2010-01-21 12:10:31
Hi:
My backuppc server is a debian machine and I am trying to backup an xp machine.
BackupPC tells me that it can't ping my xp machine. From a terminal window in
debian, i can ping my xp machine when i use the ip address. 192.160.xx.xx
If I ping using the host name of the xp machine (e.g. foo), the ping command
displays some ip address i've never seen...something like 63.123.155.104....how
is it getting that and how can it be corrected?
I recall that nslookup looks at the local hosts file first to resolve the
name....i look in my hosts file and found no such address....now what?
Thanks
John
