Hi, If you look at the error message, you will see that it says that it cannot find a name for the address 192.168.0.25. The problem is that there is no proper reverse DNS mapping on the DNS server. If you create a reverse DNS entry for 192.168.0.x, you should be able to run nslookup. For more information, look at the DNS HOWTO. Note that this problem does not prevent other programs from using the DNS server. It is just that nslookup does not work properly. Try browsing the network from that machine and you will be able to lookup names.
