As i said vibhu the problem could lie in the fact that you may not
have specified a nameserver for resolving the hostname. so a
certain domain to which you server is already connected can act
as a nameserver resolving a certain number of machines and not
resolving others. Please correct me if I am wrong I could be going
wrong on fundamentals here.

by

find
