So, you are this error message when RC 16 (No Path to Endpoint) is 
returned by a STAF request to a remote machine?  Is this a Windows 
machine?

This is most likely because the TCP/IP DNS settings are not setup up 
correctly on the machine.  See section "3.1.4 why can't my STAF machines 
communicate?" in the STAF FAQ at 
http://staf.sourceforge.net/current/STAFFAQ.htm#d0e930 on how to update 
the DNS settings so that the machines can communicate.  Make sure that the 
network connection's TCP/IP settings have the primary DNS suffix set to 
the correct domain name (e.g. domain.inc).

Subject:        [staf-users] Hostname Problems



Hi,

I am having problems with STAF not being able to resolve the hostname on 
the remote computer.  I am seeing the error:

STAFConnectionProviderConnect: Error resolving host name: Unknown host 
name: D000574, gethostbyname(): 22, Endpoint: tcp://D000574@6500

Which is weird because >staf localhost list returns..
---------------------
....
STAF/Config/Machine               : D000574.domain.inc
STAF/Config/MachineNickname       : D000574.domain.inc
..
STAF/Env/COMPUTERNAME             : D000574
..

The problem is the remote computer cannot resolve "D000574" but it can 
resolve "D000574.domain.inc".  When I am making STAF requests, how can I 
enforce that it is using "D000574.domain.inc"?

Do I need to set this STAF/Env/COMPUTERNAME variable? Can I do this in 
staf.cfg ?

Thanks,

Josh
