HP HP-UX DNS issue
Hi All,

I'm having some problems with our HP-UX environment. I'm running Oracle EBS on a HP-UX system, and whenever my primary dns server goes down some of my clients can no longer connect. Everything on my windows side continues to work, and clients can reach the internet and other services without a problem, so my best guess is that it is only a problem with my HP-UX system.

I have a secondary dns server defined so I'm not sure why it's not failing over? Is there a timeout issue, or something else I'm missig here? Please see below for how my conf files look like.

resolve.conf
domain domain.local
nameserver 192.168.1.1
nameserver 192.168.1.2

nsswitch.conf
hosts: files [NOTFOUND=continue UNAVAIL=continue] dns [NOTFOUND=return UNAVAIL=continue TRYAGAIN=return]

polygraph-dns-cfg

POLYGRAPH-DNS-CFG(1)						   User Commands					      POLYGRAPH-DNS-CFG(1)

NAME

       polygraph-dns-cfg - DNS server configuration tool

SYNOPSIS

       dns-cfg [--option ...]

DESCRIPTION

       Given  a  zone  name, DNS names, and IP addresses, dns-cfg builds configuration suitable for use with BIND and, perhaps, other DNS servers.
       Dns-cfg output consists of three parts. The first part is the text to cut-and-paste into BIND's named.conf file. This part is sent  to  the
       standard  output. The outer two parts are direct and reverse zone files. Those may be quite large and are dumped on disk into the appropri-
       ately named files. Dns-cfg can use PGL configuration as the source of information.

OPTIONS

       --help list of options

       --version
	      package version info

       --config <filename>
	      PGL configuration

       --cfg_dirs <dirs>
	      directories for PGL #includes

       --zone <str>
	      zone name

       --addresses <str>
	      IP addresses

       --names <str>
	      domain names
