Paul,

If I understand you correctly, `ping lactarius' does not work on your machine. 
Does `ping lactarius.complete.domain.name' work?

If so, do you have 'complete.domain.name' listed in the domain search list.

YaST -> Network Devices -> Network Card -> 
then edit card and select Hostname and Name Server

It might help...
