Re: [ts-7000] TS-7250 doesn't resolve host name

["Stephen Queen" <>]

Your broadcast address and netmask don't define a valid network. Either your your broadcast should be 10.10.1.255 or your netmask should be 255.0.0.0. Probably it is your broadcast that is wrong.

I ran the ping command on my TS-7250 board and got the message:

$ping www.bankofamerica.com
ping: www.bankofamerica.com: Unknown host

If I ping an IP address instead of host name, it will work. My TS-7250
board is configured to use dhcp and should work fine since the output
from ifconfig command is:
$ ifconfig

eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:D0:69:40:3D:D7

inet addr:10.10.1.113 Bcast:10.255.255.255
Mask:255.255.255.0

TX packets:2 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

I did search the previous messages. One said a similar problem was
caused by wrong static IP address used by the SBC. But I don't think
it applies to my situation because I have a Linux desktop on the same
subnet. It runs dhcp and resolves all host names. Running ifconfig
command on the desktop PC gives me the output:

eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:14:6C:C3:73:DE
inet addr:10.10.1.115 Bcast:10.10.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

RX bytes:1603262774 (1.4 GiB) TX bytes:123856516 (118.1 MiB)
Interrupt:16 Base address:0xef00

If I put a host name and IP address pair in the /etc/hosts file, it
will work for that specific host name. My linux version is 2.4.26-ts9
Anybody can give me a pointer? Thank you.
