Re: [FW-1] cannot get address of host <hostname>



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

I would check a couple of things...  First, make sure that the
/etc/defaultdomain is set correctly.  Secondly, look at your
resolv.conf and see if it is resolving to FILES or DNS or Both and
which order.  The fact that you only have the name [ie. charon] in the
error message indicates to me that it is not sure of the FQDN [Fully
Qualified Domain Name].  For example.... charon is resolving as a
standalone system and not charon.sonycom.com [if that's the right
domain].

Hope this helps....

* Subject: [FW-1] cannot get address of host <hostname>
*
*
* Hi,
*
* I'm running NG FP1 on Solaris (Sparc). I have a number of firewalls
* which are all managed from the same management server. When I try to
* install a policy on a server (called 'caffreys') I get messages
like:
*
* ruleset-1.W: Security Policy Script generated into ruleset-1.pf
* ruleset-1:
* "/opt/CPfw1-50/conf/ruleset-1.pf", line 3696: WARNING: cannot
* get address of host <charon>
* "/opt/CPfw1-50/conf/ruleset-1.pf", line 3696: WARNING: will
* not create a value table for <target_list25>
* "/opt/CPfw1-50/conf/ruleset-1.pf", line 3697: WARNING: cannot
* get address of host <budweiser>
* "/opt/CPfw1-50/conf/ruleset-1.pf", line 3697: WARNING: will
* not create a value table for <target_list26>
* Compiled OK.
*
* 'charon' and 'budweiser' are also firewalls.
* Installing on different firewalls gives different 'cannot get
* address of host ...'
* messages.
*
* All firewalls have objects on the management server with the correct
* ip-address and names. I checked /etc/hosts on the firewall to
* make sure
* they others are listed with the proper ip-addresses.
*
* Any idea why this message is generated and what I can do
* about it (does it
* harm anything?)
*
* Nico
