EJB Lookup fails

[Aryan Khan]

I am having problem with ejb lookup on was 6.1. Just to mention that on standalone WAS server it works fine, but on WAS+NDM it fails.
I have my server server1 which has a DNS entry of server1.mypc.mydomain, which I cannot change to server name only. But the server is not part of domain. So when I do a lookup from the client it fails saying cannot resolve server name(server1). My question how can I make WAS to pick up the fully qualified server name:

I changed the ORB_LISTENER_ADDRESS to fully qualified name. As a result I am able to lookup the EJB, but while narrowing the Object it fails with the above exception. I found a link on IBM for the same issuehttp://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21198886, and changed the plugin-cfg.xml file but no use.
Can some one help!!!
Thanks

Try doing using the dumpnamespace utility. It can be helpful. Here's some information on using it to look at the various namespaces:

Good luck!
