What does your /etc/nsswitch.conf look like?  Is it only
using DNS for host name resolution?  If so,

	1) insert "files " before "dns", or
	2) is there any internal nameserver for your LAN?
		One that'll forward queries for the rest of the world?
	   Then put that first in the nameserver entries in
		/etc/resolv.conf.
