These two servers are identical in hardawre and OS.
The OS is Tru64 5.1B pk4 The clients are running Tru64 5.1A pk6

Re: Tru64 V5.1 Name Resolving (DNS) problem

I've encountered a problem related to Name Resolving on my Tru64 Box.
I've defined the name servers' IP on the "resolv.conf" as below:
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
nameserver yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy
And the "nsswitch.conf" contains the following entries:
aliases: files
auth_prpasswd: files
group: compat
group_compat: nis
hosts: files dns
netgroup: nis
networks: files
passwd: compat
passwd_compat: nis
protocols: files
rpc: files
services: files
By using "nslookup" on the Tru64 box, I can resolve the name into IP:
#nslookup
Default Server: dns01-aa.bbbbbb.abc
Address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
www.cisco.com
Server: dns01-aa.bbbbbb.abc
Address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: www.cisco.com
Address: 198.133.219.25
But I can't ping the www.cisco.com:
# ping www.cisco.com
ping: unknown host www.cisco.com
The ping can get the IP of the host if it exist in "/etc/hosts"
And my "/etc/hosts" file has the 2 entries for my primary and secondary
name server IP and name.
I would like to know if anything I need to change in order to make the
"nsswitch.conf" file valid ? Or there's any problem on my
"nsswitch.conf" file ? Or I need to restart some process after changing
the above files ?
Please kindly help ! Million thanks ! :)
Have you tried svc.conf? The keywords are local and bind with a comma |
separator. There should be a manpage.
Example:
hosts=local,bind |

Which version of 5.1? How was it installed? You may find the file you
need to be looking at is /etc/svc.conf rather than /etc/nsswitch.conf...
it seems to be kind of random which one gets installed on a 5.1B system
even:
% uname -a
OSF1 xxx.xxxx.xxx.xxx V5.1 2650 alpha
% cat /etc/nsswitch.conf
cat: cannot open /etc/nsswitch.conf
% cat /etc/svc.conf
[...]
hosts=local,bind
[...]
# uname -a
OSF1 yyy.xxxx.xxx.xxx V5.1 2650 alpha
# cat /etc/nsswitch.conf
[...]
hosts: files dns
[...]

Dear Mario,
Firstly thanks for your kind suggestion !
I think version 5.1 should use the file nsswitch.conf .... but anyway
I've tried the svc.conf before with the entry you've suggested above. I
still can't resolve the host with "ping".
Should I restart some daemon after change this file ? Any what time
will use nsswitch.conf, what time will use svc.conf ?
Look forward your kind reply ! |

It's my understanding that the nsswitch.conf file was introduced in 5.1b |
in patch kit 3.
Try running the ping using truss to trace the system calls. You'll see
which files are referenced and in which order in the truss output.
truss is in the system V add on. It's in the associated products discs
that come with the OS.
The command should be something like:
truss -aef -o truss.out ping www.cisco.com
Let it run for one ping, then kill it with ctrl-c. Look at the
truss.out file with "more" or vi and look for which files it references.
You can search through the text file with more with the "/" key.
If you still can't figure out what's going on, then try posting your
question to the tru64 forums at itrc.hp.com. The gurus there will
probably be able to help you out.
Cheers,
Mario |

Thanks very much Mario and Peter !
I've tried on the svc.conf with "hosts=local,bind", but still can't
resolve the host with "ping www.cisco.com" command.
And since I'm not the owner of the box ... and the "truss" utility is
not found in it, so I can't get the truss output at this moment. Maybe
I'll try later after the owner has installed the "truss". And I think
I'll post this problem to HP's forum too .....
Thanks again for all you guys' help ! ^_^ |

This is a question in the FAQ that used to get regularly posted to
comp.unix.tru64 but now seems to be available from www.tru64.org. The link
from the main page seems to be broken but you can find the FAQ
here...http://www.tru64.org/faq/tru64_faq.php
Given that you have a tu0 device in unix, I think that would translate to
an ewa0 device at the srm-console.
So take the system down to the >>> prompt using shutdown -h, when you get
there, then type in show ewa0_mode. It should show something like auto.
Then change it with set ewa0_mode FastFD.
Or given that you say ifconfig works for you at the moment you could just
put something in one of the startup scripts that runs during boot and does
the right thing. You could for example put it in the /sbin/init.d/network
script.
Hope that helps

Not on digital unix I don't think. I can try and build it later on today
but unless you have explicit knowlege that it works then I think you are
just wrong.
More importantly mii-tool is never a permanent solution on it's own even in
the Linux world.

Nope, 'mii-tool' is a Linux specific tool, not available on
Tru64, the above mentioned method should do the trick, though
(iirc) one should be able to set srm parameters through 'consvar'
(man consvar) from a running Tru64 system.
