Host table tips:
• If you are exporting NewsBrowse EDLs to NewsEdit, the NewsEdit workstation
must be able to resolve the Profile MDI name (present in the EDL) to the IP address
of the Profile XP system to which the MDI connects. You can do this by either (a)
mapping the MDI name to the Profile IP address in the NewsEdit workstation’s
host table, or (b) by naming the Profile MDI name the same as the Profile host
name. Refer to
“MDI naming convention” on page 30
.
• The NAS and NewsBrowse server IP address need to be resolved using the Client
side IP address via DNS lookup, not the host table.
• If the server has a canonical name, the host table for any machine that runs MDIs
that are subscribed to by the server must match case for the entire canonical name.
E.g., if the server’s canonical name is “NB-SERVER1.mycorp.net”, then the host
table entry in the MDI server(s) must match; if the entry is
“NB-SERVER1.MYCORP.NET”, then it will not work. Pinging will not show the
problem. The problem doesn’t show up until the MDIs attempt to notify the server.
