I'M ALWAYS GETTING STUCK IN THE SAME PLACE WHEN I AM TRYING TO INSTALL 9I APPSERVER 9.0.2.0.1 REL 2. ITS ALWATYS HAPPENING AT THE oRACLE db CONFIG assistant i have set up my host file and when i ping -a servername i get the full reply back ex. servername.domain.com but now when i ping -a 111.111.111.111 i do not get the host name back this is b/c i do not have the PTR record set up. Do i have to have a reverse dnslookup working for what oracle is stating is "FQDN" and not just the dns lookup working...how is oracle installer looking at this piece.
that is the only i see that i don't have when i look at my computer name (by the way this is a winnt environment)in properties it has the FQDN. i also have set up the host file correctly resembling 111.111.111.111 servername.domainname.com servername oracleinstall. What else am i missing here guys? thanks for the help in advance
regards,
robert
