Re: Ping vs Notes Trace

[JDelRisco@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Is the 208.16.99.7 address the external NAT address of the server?  Can anyone 
tell you if that address is being used by your organiztion for anthing?  Could 
it be DNS or Host Routing Table?  I have no idea but just throwing out ideas.

Subject: Ping vs Notes Trace



On the i5/os command line I can type in
ping notes01
and it will return 
Verifying connection to host system NOTES01.dekko-1 at address
  10.10.1.189. 
PING reply 1 from 10.10.1.189 took 0 ms. 256 bytes. TTL 64. 
PING reply 2 from 10.10.1.189 took 0 ms. 256 bytes. TTL 64. 
PING reply 3 from 10.10.1.189 took 0 ms. 256 bytes. TTL 64. 
PING reply 4 from 10.10.1.189 took 0 ms. 256 bytes. TTL 64. 
PING reply 5 from 10.10.1.189 took 0 ms. 256 bytes. TTL 64. 
Round-trip (in milliseconds) min/avg/max = 0/0/0. 
Connection verification statistics: 5 of 5 successful (100 %).

Which is good.

However, at the domino console I type in 
trace notes01
and I get back:
Determining path to server NOTES01 
Available Ports:  TCPIP 
Checking normal priority connection documents only... 
Local network connection document found for NOTES01/DEKKO 
  Verifying address 'NOTES01.dekko.com' for NOTES01/DEKKO on TCPIP
    Requesting IP Address for NOTES01.dekko.com from DNS 
    DNS returned address 208.16.99.7 for NOTES01.dekko.com 
Which is BS.

Now, we did have wierd stuff in CHGTCPDMN.  Two of the three DN Servers 
did not make sense and it's being blamed on someone who no longer works 
here.  So we changed those two to something that makes sense.  Stopped the 
Domino server and started it back up.
Ping still returns 10.10.1.189.
Domino Trace still returns 208.16.99.7.

What now?  Reboot the iSeries?
