DNS problem : ping doesn't recognize hostname

I have vmware on my windows PC ( hostname : acer ).
vmware has RHEL 7 ( hostname : rhel7 ) installed recently.

RHEL IP configuration
IP : 192.168.5.128
Netmask : 255.255.255.0

ssh to rhel7 works from acer using putty

resolve.conf
Code:
cat /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 192.168.5.1

host file of acer has the entry
Code:
192.168.5.1 acer

ping to acer from rhel 7 does not work.
Code:
[root@rhel7 ~]# ping acer
ping: unknown host acer

cups-browsed.conf(5)													      cups-browsed.conf(5)

NAME
cups-browsed.conf - server configuration file for cups-browsed DESCRIPTION
The cups-browsed.conf file configures the cups-browsed daemon. It is normally located in the /etc/cups directory. Each line in the file can be a configuration directive, a blank line, or a comment. Comment lines start with the # character. DIRECTIVES
The BrowseAllow directive specifies a system or network to accept CUPS browse packets from. The default is to accept browse packets from all hosts when BrowseRemoteProtocols uses the CUPS protocol. BrowseAllow 192.168.7.20 BrowseAllow 192.168.7.0/24 BrowseAllow 192.168.7.0/255.255.255.0 The BrowsePoll directive polls a server for available printers once every 60 seconds. Multiple BrowsePoll directives can be specified to poll multiple servers. The default port to connect to is 631. BrowsePoll works independently of whether CUPS browsing is activated in BrowseRemoteProtocols. BrowsePoll 192.168.7.20 BrowsePoll 192.168.7.65:631 BrowsePoll host.example.com:631 The BrowseLocalProtocols directive specifies the protocols to use when advertising local shared printers on the network. The default is "none". Control of advertising of local shared printers using dnssd is done in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf. BrowseLocalProtocols none BrowseLocalProtocols CUPS The BrowseRemoteProtocols directive specifies the protocols to use when finding remote shared printers on the network. Multiple protocols can be specified by separating them with spaces. The default is "dnssd cups". BrowseRemoteProtocols none BrowseRemoteProtocols CUPS dnssd BrowseRemoteProtocols CUPS BrowseRemoteProtocols dnssd The BrowseProtocols directive specifies the protocols to use when finding remote shared printers on the network and advertising local shared printers. "dnssd" is ignored for BrowseLocalProtocols. Multiple protocols can be specified by separating them with spaces. The default is "none" for BrowseLocalProtocols and "dnssd cups" for BrowseRemoteProtocols. BrowseProtocols none BrowseProtocols CUPS dnssd BrowseProtocols CUPS BrowseProtocols dnssd SEE ALSO
