Your screenshot shows the machine is unable to resolve "ubuntu-server.local", it doesn't even get as far as actually pinging it.

Which DNS server is responsible for the .local domain on your LAN? You need to add the IP for it into the list of resolvers in Network Manager so the machine can find it, since it's not something that would be returned by any DNS server on the general Internet.

  • @MuhammadQasim: Re-read this answer. Your comments are unrelated to this answer. I'm pretty sure Caesium is spot on. You need to make sure that your machine is using your DNS server and not some other server. A good way to test this is to run dig ubuntu-server.local and see which IP address is being used for the server. Nov 18, 2011 at 21:56
  • Okay, and "cat /etc/resolv.conf" has 192.168.0.50 as one of the nameserver entries? You omitted the command you ran to get the dig output which may have been useful to see if you had to specify a DNS server to query. It may have to be the top entry in resolv.conf, I can't remember offhand if another server returning "doesn't exist" will cause it to stop trying any subsequent ones..
