Identity Manager on Tomcat AND name resolution
The summary of the problem is this.
I have modified the "host" file on the windows machine and I can ping a host fine but the Tomcat served Sun Identity Manager test connection or any other java application will not resolve the hostname matt.base4u.com.
Your comments would be appreciated
Test connection failed for resource(s):
LDAP: Could not connect to LDAP server 'MATT.base4u.com'. ==> javax.naming.CommunicationException: MATT.base4u.com:489\n
Above is the error message that I receive when testing a connection to an LDAP server.
If I ping the hostname it resolves fine
C:\>ping matt.base4u.com
