ssh/putty/opentext

[p7]

hi all

i have an itanium superdome2 running hpux 11.31.  we have users logging into this box with ssh in a product called opentext.  they intermittently cannot login and magically login after awhile. i can use putty to ssh during these times

and login with no problem.  also i noticed a couple of times a dns server was rebooted and they were able to login for awhile at least.  i checked with networking and they say everything looks ok. has anyone run into this?

thx in advance

>>they intermittently cannot login

What kind of errors are users seeing?  Is there anything in any logs on the system (like /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log)?

nothing pops out in syslog and i can get in thru putty ssh during their outages.

ive attached the error mssg

It looks like a DNS issue.

Is there a way to have the users connect via the servers IP address rather its name?
