Connection String to NAV IP Address works but not Server name

We are able to ping the Server name in the network. We are not able to connect to the server using the server name in the connection string. Replacing the server name with the IP address works well.

Ex: Nav1:7046/DynamicsNAV90 does not work

xxx.xxx.xx.xx:7046/DynamicsNAV90 works

    This is a dns issue. nslookup your server and check if the config is okay. If all the config seems ok than you may need to flushdns

    As a workaround, you can add your ip/servername to your host file.
