I don't know what "mymachines" is.  I don't see it in the man page.

What happens if you get rid of the "mymachines" field?

You're using a local caching resolver, or at least something that
forwards requests.  That's fine, if it works.  You might try probing
the DNS resolver at 10.0.0.1 to see whether it actually does work.

(There's a really good chance that 10.0.0.1 is your router, and that
your router implements a forwarding nameserver, which just passes
your requests to your ISP.  These router-based forwarding resolvers
can be a bit flaky sometimes.)

That's good.  At least you're not blocking UDP packets or something like
that.  If the weird entry in nsswitch.conf doesn't turn out to be the
problem, and 10.0.0.1 turns out to be non-functional in some way, you
could use Google's resolvers as a fallback.
