I tested with "host laptop.w530" and I get unresolved (expected). If I add "nameserver 192.168.1.8" (my computer) to top of /etc/resolv.conf and do "host laptop.w530" I get 192.168.1.105 - so seems to be working.
The canonical DNS testing tool is dig. It displays the outbound query packet and the reply, in great detail. You'll find it in the bind-utils package.
