How do you "use nslookup"? If nslookup 'yourhost.yourdomain.com' gives IP address 12.34.56.78, then that's only half of what's needed. 'nslookup 12.34.56.78' must also give 'yourhost.yourdomain.com' (ideally) or at least *some* domain name. BTW, 'nslookup' is deprecated, 'host' and/or 'dig' is recommended instead. But that doesn't help you with your problem. -- Toomas Aas | toomas.aas@raad.tartu.ee | http://www.raad.tartu.ee/~toomas/ * How much net work could a network work, if a network could net work?
