This is an easy one for me, because we have "named" the name server daemon
running here.  Your probably not privy to this so I'll run it for you by
banging out of vi just now

"nslookup bugs.nosc.mil"
Server:  iris613
Address:  0.0.0.0

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:    bugs.nosc.mil
Address:  128.49.16.1

Gee, I wonder if that 16 had anything to do with it.

"ping 128.49.16.1 1 1"

PING 128.49.16.1 (128.49.16.1): 1 data bytes
9 bytes from 128.49.16.1: icmp_seq=0


----128.49.16.1 PING Statistics----
1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss

Hope this helps.
