And you've verified (via running dhcpinfo DNSserv on the passing and failing AI clients) that the passing and failing systems are in fact using the same DNS server when installing via AI? This isn't an AI problem, it's a name resolution problem somewhere. Either on the DNS Server that the failing AI client is connecting to or something very odd with the networking stack (such that name resolution fails) on the failing AI client. I'd troubleshoot it as such. After really verifying that the passing and failing clients are using the same DNS server during install, on the failing client troubleshoot it like you would any other name resolution problem. Can you resolve any names? Do you have a resolv.conf that looks reasonable and correct, is the nsswitch.conf set correctly, etc. Cheers, -- Glenn _______________________________________________ caiman-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/caiman-discuss
