Thank you Peasant. I noticed my first VM did not even have an nsswitch.conf file so I deleted it from my second VM and my nslookup commands are now working properly Smilie

I've compared netconf, netstat -rn, hosts, nsswitch.conf, ipf is disabled, no vlan tagging, no apa, no serviceguard. All are identical as far as I can see, except for hostname and IP address.

I'm stumped. Smilie
So I ended up opening an HP support case. The problem turned out to be a product flaw. Nothing wrong at all with my config. I was running HP-VM version 4.20 which according to HP support, is buggy.

They recommended either upgrading to 4.30 and installing a bunch of patches on top of that, OR upgrading to the latest 6.x version.

The upgrade resolved the problem.
