Re: hostname resolution & vpn

Phil
When you use VPN you are in a network that is very different from the one
you are in. Check your HOSTS table, or DNS server, to see that the IP name
you are entering points to the correct "internal" address that you use.

I just installed WDSc - and so far I like it alot.  I could see this
replacing Ops Nav!

One site that I connect to I have to use VPN.  I can enter the domain name
and check ptf's and other CODE/400 actions, but when I am in RSE and click
to expand iSeries Jobs (for example) I get a message that the host name
can't be found.  I changed it to an ip address and it now works.

For sites that I connect to without a VPN, I have no problems using a
hostname.

Is this a known problem?  If not I want to make it known!
