[SunHELP] Problem with DNS during install

[Matthew Poertner]

My DNS is on the same network and on the same switch.  I tried the 
Microsoft approach and reran the install.  After playing around with it 
and plugging in different settings I got it to take.  I'm not sure but I 
think the only thing I did was add a trailing, "." on the end of the 
domain name.  Does that make sense?

Weird...
