Did you not say you had stopped NM from running.

Yes I did and NM is not running.

Go to another machine and run dig on the contested ip address and find out
what its name of the machine. You can also find out its machine address.

# dig 192.168.1.6

I am not sure what that has told me.

Jonathan

You are right. I sent you to the wrong command.
host 192.168.1.6
or
nslookup 192.168.1.6

What we are looking foe is something like:

[akonstam@cyrus ~]$ host 131.194.71.168
168.71.194.131.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer cs.trinity.edu.
168.71.194.131.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer sol.cs.trinity.edu.
or
[akonstam@cyrus ~]$ nslookup 131.194.71.168
Server: 192.168.1.254
Address: 192.168.1.254#53

Non-authoritative answer:
168.71.194.131.in-addr.arpa name = cs.trinity.edu.
168.71.194.131.in-addr.arpa name = sol.cs.trinity.edu.

which would tell us the name of the machine using that ip address.
