Don't you need to use the fully qualified domain name to determine IP of the host?
Example:
carlh@linux:~> ping google ping: unknown host google
carlh@linux:~> ping www.google.com PING www.google.akadns.net (216.239.41.104) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 216.239.41.104: icmp_seq=1 ttl=241 time=42.1 ms 64 bytes from 216.239.41.104: icmp_seq=2 ttl=241 time=39.5 ms
Now try again, and add the line search com in /etc/resolv.conf (removing any other search line you may have there of course)
