The only way the Unix boxes know names is through the hosts files. The servers are on an isolated network (and don't have DNS servers specified in basic network setup) and the Backup server that I am trying to send all the mail thru is dual homed on that network and to the other "internet network". Is there an easy way to tell if we have a DNS server on our network? I do not think we do. I think that everything is windows workgroup and hosts files... Also,could you provide a more in depth explanation of the DNS conflict you speak of? Thanks.
