I have both WINS and DNS settings for the NetWorker Server.  However, the 
domain controllers don't have a WINS entry.  I will be rolling my own WINS 
server in the next few weeks.  

Utilizing a hosts file seems like a workaround.  Why is the NW server setup to 
utilize a shortname rather than FQDN?  Is there anyway to "repair" the 
NetWorker server so it introduces a DNS address for the client to resolve to IP?
