RE: Ping and DNS

The NSLOOKUP ran fine, but PING still gets the same error message. Am I 
missing something?

Use NSLOOKUP to see which DNS server you're connecting to, and if it can

Subject: Ping and DNS

I am currently having a problem with PING. When I PING a hostname that
is
not set up in our Host Table, such as www.yahoo.com, the AS400 is not
using our network DNS to go out and get the IP address. What it gives me

is the following message: "PING GETADDRINFO(): The name could not be
resolved at this time.  Future attempts may succeed. (1).". How do I set

up our AS400 to use our DNS if something is not found in the Host Table?
I
tried putting in our local DNS entries into the CHGTCPDMN command
INTNETADR parameter but still have the same problem. HELP! Thanks

Nick Franco
