> Oooo IPv6 is on... Could that cause any of these issues? Yes possibly. Why don't you temporarily disable it: Put a install net-pf-10 /bin/true into /etc/modprobe.conf.local, and make sure ipv6 logging is disabled in the SuSE firewall (or it will explicitly load the ipv6 modules). If you can't forcefully remove the ipv6 modules, reboot.
Just in case run rcnscd restart if you didn't reboot. Stop the firewall while testing. ping host and ping host.domain seem to be a very good test case for you to test the name resolution. Do you have faxserver listed in its own /etc/hosts? Does the problem go away if you list the various hosts in faxserver:/etc/hosts?
