Hello, Gord;
It does seem there is a name resolution problem. For managed nodes and TMR
server I always use local name resolution by using /etc/hosts as the first way
to get hostnames resolved so I have created /etc/netsvc.conf to control the
lookup order.
As I can see your managed node name is set to IP address. You must have a reason
for this. When IP address changes (not so rare, isn't it?) and the name is set
to the IP address, things get much more complicated, for you have to rename the
database directory name, change all the scripts where the oserv command occures,
etc. In short I would avoid this.
>From the client machine try this:
nslookup <server_name>
nslookup <server_FQDN>
nslookup <server_addr>
>From the server do this:
nslookup <client_name>
nslookup <client_FQDN>
nslookup <client_addr>
Check the results carefully. They should tell you what's wrong. Don't forget
Framework also needs the reverse name resolution.
Hope this helps,
Best regards,
Vladimir.
