Either you don't have correct entries in the nameserver, or your /etc/resolv.conf on gc-infra is not using 192.168.0.29 as it's nameserver. What is the output of nslookup on gc-infra when you key in the bettchen.steenbuck.net name? What is it when you issue a "set type=mx" at the nslookup prompt followed by the bettchen.steenbuck.net name? What is it when you key in the IP number 192.168.0.29? Ted
