Hello! I am setting up a small network of one Linux and one non-Linux box. The network is established via Ethernet; ifconfig and route report verify this. I am able to telnet from the non-linux to the Linux box but only using the IP address - NOT using the hostname. However, when I try to telnet from the Linux box to itself ( using the loopback interface ), it works fine. My /etc/hosts , /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/networks seem to be ok.
I don't have 'named' running, but it looks like I might need to ( though I had wanted to avoid it ). Any ideas are appreciated. -- Jim Earl [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
