This is a multi-part message in MIME format. Hi,
I am having some host name discrepancies with two nodes that the router
people decided to swap ip addresses. One node is the IBM 8265, which
now has the ip address of our used to be default gateway router. The
ethernet lec on the 8265 is now the default gateway. The old gateway
router, is now just a router, with the same host name on the token ring
side of the network. I changed the default gateway and I have swapped
the ip addresses in the /etc/hosts file, but the 8265 shows up with the
old gateway router host name. If I do object display info, I get all
the correct information regarding the 8265. I have deleted the nodes,
but the 8265 always appears with the old host name, not the one in the
/etc/hosts file.
When I try to explain this to the router folks, they tell me that
netview is stupid, but I know better. Does anyone have an idea of what
the problem is?
