DNS locked (no nslookup anyway)

[N Sikkandar Dulkarnai]

If you are not able to ping up outside the world means, you have problem
with network deamon. check

ps -ef | grep inetd

deamon is running or not ?

Make a copy of your /etc/resolv.conf and make your /etc/resolv.conf in below
format which format i am using.

# more /etc/resolv.conf
domain  Your-domain
nameserver      IP
nameserver      IP
nameserver      IP

Does named deamon running ? ps -ef | grep named

if not try to start "/usr/sbin/in.named". if it is running try to refresh
"kill -HUP `cat /etc/named.pid`"
