I have a machine w/ a legit public address and a FQDN. I can ping the IP, but can’t ping the name of the machine w/ the FQDN. Example: xyz.fqdn.com. I can ping our “mailsweeper machine” yyy.fqdn.com, because there is an entry for it in our DNS MX records… What must I do to get xyz.fqdn.com recognized? Is this a DNS issue?

Thanks much.

 
Yes it is, you will need a host record for this machine in your DNS table.

If it doesn't leak oil it must be empty!!
