[CentOS] Centos 5.4 DNS resolution issue

[Gaurav N.]

UPDATE:

I tried with FreeBSD8 as well and the DNS query didn't work. This is
beginning to look more and more like an issue with my UTStarcom *WA3002G4
ADSL2+ Router and its NAT config or the lack of it.*
*
*
*My setup and the ip addresses:*
*Router         192.168.1.1*
*Windows      192.168.1.2*
*Centos 5.4   192.168.1.3*
*FreeBSD8    192.168.1.4*
*
*
*The windows host works fine with no issues with DNS queries.*

Best Regards,
Gaurav
