Ryan Blake said: Mike, Have you checked your reverse DNS PTR records? In other words, did you do an nslookup on 192.168.1.117 to ensure it points back to the host? If that's not correct, try correcting it and see what happens. For some reason, I remember having a similar problem and it ended up being a reverse DNS problem. ~Ryan ---- No, it doesn't point back to the host: $ nslookup 192.168.1.117 Server: 192.168.1.1 Address: 192.168.1.1#53 ** server can't find 117.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa.: NXDOMAIN I don't know enough about DNSMasq to know where it keeps reverse DNS PTR records. Sounds like more studying for me. :-/ +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by [email protected] via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to [email protected]. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
