You may also want to check /etc/resolv.conf to see where the "applications" are doing their host name lookup from. This is/can be different from what nslookup reports. Also check /etc/host.conf, if it exists, as it defines the order for name lookup. A typical order is bind, followed by hosts. Hope this helps.
