Well my dear friends, I was astonished to find the problem in my resolv.conf file.
ns:/ # cat /etc/resolv.conf domain teq search 192.168.2.1
It now looks like this: ns:/ # cat /etc/resolv.conf domain teq search teq
I assumed the "domain teq" would have done the trick by itself,
amazing how a small thing causes such troubles in ones life.
Don't feel so bad Chad, See Google's Little DNS problem...... I know his IQ was only 140, but he said he was Sergey's cousin. Turns out that even the Google Labs Aptitude Test can't filter human error out of the rank and file. That's what Google found out Saturday afternoon when a DNS misconfiguration knocked the search leader and its various Web properties offline for 15 minutes or so. Gmail, Google News, Froogle -- from 3:45 to 4 p.m. PDT, you couldn't access any of them unless you happened to know their IP addresses. Google was typically tight-lipped about the incident, saying only that it was a DNS glitch and nothing sinister that had felled the company's sites. "It was not a hacking or a security issue," said Google spokesperson David Krane. "Google's global properties were unavailable for a short period of time. We've remedied the problem and access to Google has been restored worldwide." -- David C. Rankin, J.D., P.E.
