How are you doing lookups for 'mbfrodo'?

Can you do a ping mbfrodo?

If it sais unknown host, then you should either run a name server on your 
local network (if it is big enough) and have it keep track of all internal 
hostnames, or, if your network is only a few computers, and they have fixed 
ip's, edit your /etc/hosts file and add the following line

iptofrodo 	fulladdressoffrodo		mbrfodo

An example, in our network, all computernames are

name.vlaamse-kern.com

then to reach our giga server, by just typing giga, we have the following in 
hosts

192.168.0.20		giga.vlaamse-kern.com	giga
