Weird DNS behaviour

[Edgars Šmits]

Glad someone took up the challenge...

Nothing in my resolve.conf:

edgars at gutsy-64:/etc$ more resolv.conf
# generated by NetworkManager, do not edit!
nameserver 192.168.0.1
edgars at gutsy-64:/etc$

as to any dns related daemons, can't say that anything in there looks
to be of that sort.

Anything else? It is specific only to Ubuntu.

Thanks

ED
