Ping returning wrong address

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

We have multiple IP addresses set up in our TCP/IP interfaces on this one
400.  Each Domino server has it's own.  Well the NT people here got cute
and used one of our IP addresses for one of our Domino servers and set that
up in the DNS for the 400 itself.  10.10.1.186 is for the Domino server
GDSHELP.  10.10.1.123 is for the 400 GDIMAIL.  But I ping GDIMAIL from
elsewhere and it went to 10.10.1.186.  Well, I got the Cisco kid to fix the
DNS.  Now when I ping GDIMAIL from my PC I get 10.10.1.123.  However when I
ping GDIMAIL from another 400 it still goes to 10.10.1.186.  I checked the
host table on the source 400 and there is no GDIMAIL, no GDSHELP and no
10.10.1.186.  I checked out the address of the DNS using 12. Change TCP/IP
domain information and it matches the address of the dns from my PC.  So I
tried adding a host table entry for 10.10.1.123 to GDIMAIL.  Now when I
ping GDIMAIL it works.  I removed the host table entry and it goes back to
10.10.1.186.  Is there some sort of cache or am I missing something?

I'll probably leave the host table in for a workaround.
