DNS problems

[Thomas Apel <thomas.apel@gmx.net>]

Hello!

All connections to my machine are delayed. "telnet localhost" takes 20 secs to
connect and another 20 secs to display the login. "telnet 127.0.0.1" connects
immidiately, but also needs 20 secs to display a login.

Seems like some dns-lookup-problem to me. But I can't see anything wrong in my
config. It's a dialup machine running a woody install. Manual lookups with 
"host" give the following:

$ host 127.0.0.1
Name: localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1

$ host localhost
Nameserver not responding
localhost.domain.de A record not found, try again

$ host 192.168.2.15
Name: hostname.domain.de
Address: 192.168.2.15
Aliases: hostname

$ host hostname
Nameserver not responding
hostname.domain.de A record not found, try again

Any ideas, someone? The config files are included below.

TIA,
Thomas Apel
