New Noope.
DNS resolves the IP. The Browser sends the name it wants to the webserver... Apache knows the content pointer and serves the proper content.

No matter how much Microsoft supporters whine about how Linux and other operating systems have just as many bugs as their operating systems do, the bottom line is that the serious, gut-wrenching problems happen on Windows, not on Linux, not on Mac OS. -- [link|http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1622086,00.asp|source]

New Ok then, why didn't ping work?
Have you got ping turned off on knight? If so, is that some sort of security or performance tuning that gurus do?

In other words, if one is confronted with a situation like this in the future - no ping response, no nslookup response, no DNS entry - is there a way to know if the machine you're trying to reach is alive?

Thanks.

Cheers,
Scott.
