Not to sound ungrateful, but I believe I told all the above in the original
message:

I can ping by name to arnold:
# ping arnold

I can add route by ip-adress:
# route add default 192.168.0.11

But I can't add route by name:
# route add default arnold

Don't ping and route resolve names the same way?
