yes, sorry for the confusion. putty and ssh have the same behaviour, ergo it's a DNS thing. But ping by hostname is fine and the browser works fine by hostname, ergo DNS is basically OK. So either it's a quite subtle DNS problem, or a DNS/ssh interaction, by my logic. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
