Rick,

I would try to look harder for the DNS instead of using hosts files.
Now if you change the IP address of your server (been there - done that)
you've got to change all these hosts tables.

Samples to find the address of your DNS:

W2K:
Start
 Settings
  Network and Dialup Connections
   Local Area connection
    Properties
     Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
      Properties
Use the following DNS server addresses

iSeries:
CFGTCP
 12-Change TCP/IP domain information
  Domain name server

Things seem to be back close to normal.  Thanks everyone for your help.
Kept adding entries to HOSTS files on various servers until everything
was working again.  Don't know why it was working before though.

Thanks again!
Rick
