If IP addresses work but domain names don't, it's most likely DNS-related problem. Check if your server can resolve the address of your client. Try something like: dig problem-client.digisolutions.com Or, you can edit /etc/hosts (on the server) and put in there the name and ip address of the problem client. -- Under capitalism, man exploits man.
