do you have a default host in the pm? i.e.
show global
is that the solaris box?
then look at a port in the pm that is giving you this problem
set sXX extended on
save SXX
show sXX
does the host say "default"?
if so... then...
show table host
if anything is there... id remove it if you control primary and secondary
dns...
then... consider...
set sXX host solaris-box-ip-address
yet you need to do this for all ports if it fixes it...
this has always fixed that problem for me...
but i do pri and sec dns for me as well as pri and sec radius...
sound right people :-?
