At a guess, I would say that your machine isn't being able to resolve 
addresses correctly.  Is your /etc/resolv.conf showing a good address for  a
nameserver?  Actually, I guess you ought to have two addresses for a 
nameserver here.

The resolv.conf appears to be correct,  again it hasn't changed.

domain pics.com
nameserver 192.135.189.20
nameserver 192.135.189.10

BTW:  The machine having the problem is 192.135.189.20
