Unless you're giving us a fake address, that system is on a private network and probably behind a firewall or NAT gateway. Make sure your network's internal DNS is working properly. Run `host 172.16.1.9' and `dig -x 172.16.1.9' on the host that is giving those errors. The commands should return the remote hostname to you. -- Mike Hicks [mailto:mhicks@csom.umn.edu] Unix Support Assistant | Carlson School of Management Office: 1-160 Phone: 6-7909 | University of Minnesota
