I have a Mandrake 9.1 box with Apache installed. I use this computer as an on-site testing server.

I have sucessfully installed Samba and can ping the computer and see it in Network Neighborhood. I can access a mapped drive to it. When either on any computer (including itself) I cannot resolve http://172.16.187.90 or the name http://JoeLinux/

This includes for actually being on that computer, too. But http://127.0.0.1 or localhost works fine. The HTTP daemon and the mysql daemon are started. There is no firewall installed, and the mandrake security level is set to standard.


Anyone got a clue? It worked friday, but I don't think I changed anythin, and now it's broke.
 
There is no firewall installed. It is entirely disabled.

I think I figured out why....the IP address of the Linux box changed but it didn't update the DNS records in the Win2K server....verifying.....
 
Yea, turns out, the DHCP address changed but it didn't update the DNS record on the server. So it wasn't .90, it was .93, but since some other address took .90, I continued to be able to ping the address and get a response.....

I manually updated the DNS record and gave him a static IP. Problem solved.
