Running tru64 V5.1, I can ping and ftp by IP address, but not by name. I can
nslookup so I think the name server setup is OK. Can anyone help so I can
ftp by name rather than having to type in an IP address. Thanks.
Example:
alpha01> nslookup www.yahoo.com
Server: ns2.theriver.com
Address: 205.216.137.4
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: www.yahoo.akadns.net
Addresses: 66.94.230.45, 66.94.230.32, 66.94.230.33, 66.94.230.34
66.94.230.37, 66.94.230.39, 66.94.230.42, 66.94.230.43
Aliases: www.yahoo.com
alpha01> ping www.yahoo.com
ping: unknown host www.yahoo.com
alpha01> ping 66.94.230.45

Here are the /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/svc.conf:
