Can ping IP but not hostname

Hi, I installed Oracle VM server (bare-bone) and VM manager on the same box. The installation was successful. I can ping oracle vm server host name from windows on LAN. But today I cannot ping the oracle VM server using hostname. Pinging by IP is OK. Any idea?

$ cat /etc/sysconfig/network
  NETWORKING=yes
  NETWORKING_IPV6=yes
  HOSTNAME=al-pullpout-s01.mydomain.local
  GATEWAY=192.168.1.1

$ cat /etc/hosts
  # Do not remove the following line, or various programs
  # that require network functionality will fail.
  127.0.0.1      al-pullout-s01  localhost.localdomain   localhost
  192.168.1.117  al-pullout-s01.mydoain.local  al-pullout-s01
  ::1     localhost6.localdomain6   localhost6

Regards,
Sha
