Is your xi server is in the SSG5-Serial domain and is 10.2.189.3 the right IP for name lookups?

I fixed the search domain in the resolv.conf file to reflect dhss.ak.local and it appears to have fixed it. Strange that the AD plugin, even when providing the FQDN of the DC, will strip that off and do a name lookup on just the server name.

Good to hear that this is solved. If the XI server's ip is not statically assigned, and you use dhcp for it's leases, you may see the search domain get repopulated once your lease expires as dhcp will overwrite /etc/resolv.conf with the dns information from the lease.

No DHCP, so I think we are golden!

Thanks!
