1. named: "found it", ping: "unknown host"
Dear All
Soory, this looks much like a standard Unix question:
Applications can't resolve some addresses of my domain and only from my
Linux PC: all those who starts with the same group of letters as the
Linux PC itself, i.e.: tvn_pc, tvn_xt, tvn_lap. The Linux box's name is
tvn_linux. I don't have such problem with my other Unix boes nor my
PC's.
1/ I've setup a local named to monitor the name resolution: it's Ok.
named finds it but the invoking application don't get it.
2/ My resolv.conf has a search onto my subdomain and main domain.
3/ My nsswitch.conf says hosts: dns [NOTFOUND=continue] files
If I put an entry in the /etc/hosts: it works.
How can it be doing this?
Many thanks,
Thierry de Villeneuve
