I have discovered the the domain name I used internally
is now owned by someone. Changing my internal domain name
has fixed the problem for the moment. I am still not sure
why the resolver even went to bind. I have the appropriate 
entries in /etc/hosts, and host.conf is configured to use 
hosts first. I would still be interested in any ideas people
on the list might have.

Thanks,
Victor Cardona
