Sorry to waste your time guys (and whats worse I know I've encountered
similar problems years ago and can't remember what I did to fix it).


  Note: I'm not running named.
        The nameservers are in resolv.conf

search  cis.upenn.edu seas.upenn.edu
nameserver      158.130.67.1
nameserver      158.130.64.11

and 


  netstat -nr is

henrico# netstat -nr

  I changed from DHCP to static IP addresses on one of my boxes the other
day and ever since have the following problems:

i) Resolving names fails.

ii) If I have a name/address in host file everything is fine.

iii) IF i just give it the address say telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx then things
     can take A VERY long time say three minutes for  the connection to
     go thorugh. If I  put it in the hosts file it then takes normal time.

iv) If I do nslookup I get
henrico# nslookup seas.upenn.edu
*** Can't find server name for address 158.130.67.1: Timed out
*** Can't find server name for address 158.130.64.11: Timed out
*** Default servers are not available


  I know I've forgotten something stupid. But wait until  old age and bad
memory strike you .....
