On my new CentOS 6, KDE 4, running WireShark I see what appears to be frequent nonsensical DNS queries, for example: "settings-personal.desktop" and "settings-system.desktop". The DNS response is always:"No such name". Do tell! These appear especially when I click on things on the KDE menus. On my old CentOS 5 box, on the same LAN, I see no such thing. I note that I have replaced the original /etc/hosts with my own. Might these have been resolved in the original?
Random stab in the dark...
Are you running the autofs with /net or similar configured?
How would I know? I get nothing from: ps -ef | grep -i autofs yum -y list installed | grep -i autofs
Does rpm -qi autofs show nothing? If so, I'm a tad surprised, since that takes care of not only nfs but also CD/DVDs and USB keys.
