Cannot ping using hostname but nslookup gives the answer
I have a strange problem with only Tru64 5.1b pk3 servers ( not with any other operating system )
When I try to ping a cluster service that moved from one member to the other along with it's IP address, these tru64 servers stopped pinging it however the nslookup resolves the name and gives back the correct IP address.
prwdrew> nslookup hfoclib
Server: dnsp.sselw.com
Address: 157.209.72.202
Name: hfoclib.sselw.com
Address: 157.209.77.9
prwdrew>ping hfoclib.sselw.com
ping: unknown host hfoclib.sselw.com
Someone suggested that the arp cache needs to be flushed. Any ideas how this could be done
Any help would be appreciated

Re: Cannot ping using hostname but nslookup gives the answer
both the nsswitch.conf and the svc.conf are fine.
It is just puzzling me

Re: Cannot ping using hostname but nslookup gives the answer
Can you show us the following files:
- /etc/resolv.conf
- /etc/svc.conf
- /etc/nsswitch.conf

Re: Cannot ping using hostname but nslookup gives the answer
Please send the hosts entry for this server and also, /etc/resolv.conf.
