Hi,

I'm having an issue with a Cisco WAP unable to join the controller. I keep seeing the below but I have no idea why it won't join. I only have remote console access to the WAP at this time.

Now seeing a bit of this:

%CAPWAP-3-ERRORLOG: Could Not resolve CISCO-CAPWAP-CONTROLLER

But i can ping the controller IP and the DNS record "CISCO-CAPWAP-CONTROLLER" with no problems.

Guess nobody has seen this one before?
