I've been struggling with this error for too long and need to ask for
some help. I had BackupPC working when my IP address was set as a
pre-defined lease in my router. But I decided to instead configure the
laptop as a DHCP client so I could back up over Ethernet or wireless.
This is the error I no

/etc/resolv.conf contains:

nameserver 10.10.10.1
.60 is my internal DNS, and .1 is the router.
On ".60" I've got:

in /etc/bind/named.conf.options. Those are Verizon's DNS servers.

/etc/resolv.conf points to local nameservers which don't have records for
these hosts. The hosts in question are laptops, so it doesn't make much
sense to stick them in DNS.
hostname gives backuppc. hostname -f gives backuppc.loc.

I have a new instance set up, and BackupPC is not initiating backups because
pings keep failing. The behavior is really quite strange; please read on:
"nmblookup vostro1400" gives me 10.10.10.102. This is correct.
"nmblookup -A 10.10.10.102" gives me vostro1400. This, too, is correct.

For some reason, nmblook up fails when I try to find hosts. I have even
added entries for the machines to the hosts file and the lmhosts file. Thus,
BackupPC is up and running and doesn't find any machines to backup.
Pings to the machines are successful. I'm getting the impression from the
