Hi Bryan,
198.41.0.4 is A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET -- one of the server for the root zone.
BIND on your Linux box needs to talk to a server for the root zone to
get a list of the current set of servers for the root. It can't do that
because it's been told the network A is homed on is unreacheable.
Regards,
james
