Hi,

We have a Suse Linux Server (6.4).

I have added an entry in the /etc/hosts file as follows

175.165.191.50 linux

The hostname of my machine is linux.

When I go to a Windows machine on the network and 

tracert 175.165.191.150,
the trace returns succesfull.

Instead when I try 

tracert linux,
it says the hostname cannot be found.

Please guide!           

PS:
When I try traceroute linux on the server it goes through succesfully
