It is nice to have more than one DNS as the fall back, but one is sufficient if it is working.
I setup my own gateway machine as DNS and working for all my home LAN clients. 192.168.1.1 is the only one listed. Also, his ping-by-name indicates DNS in action. I use "ipchains -L -n" to check my 2.2 box. I thought same command works for 2.4 too. (Thogh uses different internal codes) Good luck.
