Hi Ibrahim,

Do you have a search statement in resolv.conf? My experience has been that
using all of the Tru64 Administrative utilities doesn't place that entry.
Adding a "search" statement allowed resolution. Sample:

domain us.company.com
nameserver 172.18.1.78
nameserver 172.18.1.79
search us.company.com

Best Regards, Blake
