yes, showing the contents of /etc/resolv.conf from that host would be
most helpful.
as would checking your dhcp server config and making sure that it's
giving out the correct name server address(es)
https://linux.die.net/man/5/dhcp-options
option domain-name-servers ip-address [, ip-address... ];
The domain-name-servers option specifies a list of Domain Name System
(STD 13, RFC 1035) name servers available to the client.
A quick test would be
dig @8.8.8.8 www.google.com
dig www.google.com
if the 1st works & 2nd not, chances are good your dhcp clients aren't
getting a valid name server address
