Pinging solaris AND solaris.domain.com correctly respond with the right IP
address....DNS resolution was never really a problem on the xymon box as
most of my configs reference host name....The DNS test however has NEVER
worked and has ALWAYS outputed just the "DNS service is up (ok)" message
But im at a point now where we need to monitor dns records and this brings
me back to square 1

Oh sorry - Gmail hit the A answer - this is what matters:
;; ANSWER SECTION:
solaris.domain.com. 259200 IN A 192.168.X.X
If you do a ping solaris.domain.com does it resolve to 192.168.x.x? Were
changes made to this record recently?

Neither solaris or solaris.domain.com exist. That's your problem. You
need to fix your DNS servers (listed in /etc/resolv.conf) and add those
records.

You are not using FQDN.
Try (as the xymon user on the xymon host)
dig @solaris solaris
You may not be resolving correctly. Confirm
/etc/resolv.conf is correct
Try adding your domain to bb-hosts
192.168.X.X solaris.example.com # Name:"SOLARIS" dns
nis ntp telnet pop3 pop3s imap imaps
Also try removing ‘ Name:"SOLARIS” ‘ (I don’t think
that will matter though)
