My original Question was

Hi Gurus,
I get the following error when I use nslookup in my Solaris2.5 sytem.

xanadu2$ nslookup
*** Can't find server name for address 127.0.0.1: Unspecified error
*** Default servers are not available
xanadu2$ nslookup 199.86.17.12
*** Can't find server name for address 127.0.0.1: Unspecified error
*** Default servers are not available

Any ideas??

Thanks in Advance!
Prabhat

The problem was I didn't have /etc/resolv.conf file at all. So I created the file and added domianname and IPs of the nameservers and it is working fine now.

Thanks to: Neill, Mark, Salehi, Michael E and Craig Russell.
