Deployment Server throwing name resolution errors?

all,

Out of no where my deployment server won't send data to my indexers nor will it read it's search peers. Everything points to network, but no other Splunk instances are impacted and they are all configured identically and in the same subnet. Very strange.

Error logs indicate that SPlunk cannot resolve the hosts. But I have no problem with name resolution elsewhere.

Encountered the following error while trying to save: Error while sending public key to search peer: Cannot resolve hostname

Try to remove and re-add the indexers search peers on that deployment server, or re-authenticate the search peer.

Thanks, yes, did that and still name resolution errors.

I actually went in did a readd using IP and it was fine. Everything working as expected. Kinda strange. THe OS is having no troubles with name resolution, just splunkd.

Is there an internal setting for DNS on splunk I might not be aware of?
