I'm not surprised ..... good thought from Jonathan though

OK .... add at least the second nameserver to resolv.conf, then
configure the /etc/hosts
file (FreeBSD) & the C:\Windows\hosts files so they know about all LAN
machines &
critical external ones like the nameservers. You'll need to hold down
the "shift" key in
the Windows systems to rename the default hosts.sam file to have no
extension
