That sounds like a DNS problem - a DNS error would cause a failure before the
remote system ever tried to contact Tomcat. Let's take Tomcat out of the
equation and look at the standard IP debugging tools.
- Use nslookup or dig on the other system to look up the DNS name of the Tomcat
server. What happens? If they don't tell you the correct IP address, the
problem is definitely with your DNS setup.
- Ping the server by its DNS name. What happens? This isn't a conclusive test
if it fails, as firewalls often block pings. However, if it works and shows
the correct IP address, the problem is in your Tomcat configuration.

How have you added the server's name to DNS?

Generally, because it's a complex system and not everyone knows how to manage
it ;-).

Not to my knowledge.
