Hi all, Could anyone let me know what's misconfigured here: When I ping from say server2 # ping jkhdsfkhdsafhjsahfdhksa.com I get the following reply : PING jkhdsfkhdsafhjsahfdhksa.com.mydomain2.com (ip.of.server.1): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from ip.of.server.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.594 ms 64 bytes from ip.of.server.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.427 ms The same happens from server1; it appends it's domain name to the incorrect domain # ping jkhdsfkhdsafhjsahfdhksa.com PING jkhdsfkhdsafhjsahfdhksa.com.mydomain1.com (ip.of.server.1): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from ip.of.server.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.594 ms 64 bytes from ip.of.server.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.427 ms Server2 is running multiple jails behind ipf/ipnat on 5.4-Release. Server1 is not running jails or ipf/nat. on 5.2.1-Current Server1 responds on both systems, which are in the same subnet at the same colo. A dig from both systems does reply correctly, stating that jkhdsfkhdsafhjsahfdhksa.com does not exist. Which leads me to feel that it would most probably be hosts file related. As the hosts file on both systems are not doing anything weird i.e.: Server2: ip.natted.lan server2 server2.mydomain2.com server2.mydomain2.com. Server1: ip.static.wan server1 server1.mydomain1.com server2.mydomain2.com. Although, as dns has already taken place (on existing domains it does resolve correctly), it would seem that something is happening after hosts->dns-> (not using nis). So I'm pretty much at a loss here. Any help is very much appriciated. Regards, Ruben
