    OSF1 GOAW26 V5.1 1885 alpha

    There are 2 ALPHA servers with above OS.

    ALPHA1: ping works though there is no entry in /etc/hosts for the target host.

         # ping ztbn1070
         PING ztbn1070.emea.zf-world.com (10.23.15.245): 56 data bytes
         64 bytes from 10.23.15.245: icmp_seq=0 ttl=63 time=12 ms
         64 bytes from 10.23.15.245: icmp_seq=1 ttl=63 time=1 ms
         64 bytes from 10.23.15.245: icmp_seq=2 ttl=63 time=1 ms

         # nslookup ztbn1070
         Server: bnns99990.emea.zf-world.com
         Address: 10.23.4.176

         Name: ztbn1070.emea.zf-world.com
         Address: 10.23.15.245

         #

    ALPHA2: ping does not get an answer.

         # ping ztbn1070
         ping: unknown host ztbn1070

         # nslookup ztbn1070
         Server: bnns99990.emea.zf-world.com
         Address: 10.23.4.176

         Name: ztbn1070.emea.zf-world.com
         Address: 10.23.15.245

    I guess for ALPHA2 there is a problem with the name service. On both machines /etc/resolv.conf are identical.

    What is wrong with ALPHA2 ?
