PIX 515e - Problem using hostnames?

[sparky212]

I have a strange issue with my ACLs in my PIX 515e. I have names assigned:

names
name 192.168.0.100 bob
name 192.168.0.101 carol
name 192.168.0.102 ted

and I use these names for some static mappings:
static (inside,outside) xxx.xxx.xxx.20 bob netmask 255.255.255.255 0 0
static (inside,outside) xxx.xxx.xxx.22 carol netmask 255.255.255.255 0 0
static (inside,outside) xxx.xxx.xxx.24 ted netmask 255.255.255.255 0 0

That seems to work just fine. But in my ACLs, if I try this, it doesn't work:

access-list inbound permit tcp any host bob eq 8080

However, this works just fine:

access-list inbound permit tcp any host xxx.xxx.xxx.20 eq 8080

Anyone have any idea why that would be? It comes into particular effect when I'm using object-groups with the names...when the ACL's get expanded ("show access-list") and it uses the names, nothing works...so I'm stuck doing "longhand" with the IP addresses and making changes/edit that much more difficult.

Any ideas? Any help, of course, greatly appreciated.

Here's the full config in case it helps:

sparky212,

You have defined bob to be 192.168.0.100. If you want use a name for xxx.xxx.xxx.20, you will have to define a different name for it. Static mapping does not map names, just IP addresses.
