Name resolution

2007-12-24 21:02:00

Having a strange problem on one of my Solaris 8
servers. If I do an nslookup on a hostname, it
returns a valid IP address. However if I do a ping to
that same hostname it says unknown host.
Here is an example output:
uspl002:/etc/ > nslookup yahoo.com
Server: xxx.xxman.com
Address: 192.168.1.1

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: yahoo.com
Addresses: 216.115.108.245, 216.115.108.243

uspl002:/etc/ > ping yahoo.com
ping: unknown host yahoo.com

I would really appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Duane Robertson
