NOTE: Make a backup copy of the file before editing it - if the modification allows the command to run successfully, then perform the following 2 steps:
1. Put the file back to using FQDNs
2. Identify the limitation/error in your name resolution
NOTE: RSA Security cannot assist with this task - contact your operating system or network vendor for assistance
