try removing all 'nameserver' entries from resolv.conf it will cause the programs to lookup at 0.0.0.0 ..which should work (for me it does) also make sure that the machine is running a named and it is working, try to resolve stuff on it from another machine (you may have to add a listen option in named.conf to have it listen on the right ip(s)/port(s)) bschra >name.
