RE: Unable to lookup hostname or cfengine service

[Atom Powers]

Correction, removing BindToInterface seems to have fixed the problem.

I found that my reverse lookup form some of the cfengine clients was
incorrect and that fixed it on a few of the hosts. But DNS is correct for
Titan0, and I am still seeing the problem on that host. (host command output
below) I have also tried it with and without BindToInterface.

1.      Am I right in assuming that these host commands were run on titan0?
2.      Have you checked the DNS settings for titan0
