[plug] DNS not working on SLES10

[Mark J Gaynor]

Have you tried to DIG or NSLOOKUP the domains to see if there is any
resolution taking place. Have a look at the logs to see if the name server
is starting up without any errors.  DNS will usually fail a badly
configured
domain and continue to run.
