What is the IP address(s) of lehi.tamu.edu? Is it one of the nameserver
entries in /etc/resolv.conf? Unless you're running a local nameserver then
it shouldn't be. Assuming that you're not running a nameserver on lehi,
the only file I know of to specify the nameservers is /etc/resolv.conf,
which should contain all of your networks nameservers.
