LOL. I should have mentioned that I checked all the obvious permission things, and they're all what one would expect:
(riedl-ibm-x40: /) ll /usr/bin/nslookup.exe 60K -rwxr-xr-x 1 riedl Users 60K Jun 10 10:23 /usr/bin/nslookup.exe* (riedl-ibm-x40: /) ll /usr/bin/dig.exe 72K -rwxr-xr-x 1 riedl Users 72K Jun 10 10:23 /usr/bin/dig.exe* (riedl-ibm-x40: /) I was speculating that the permission was some windows restriction on sending low-level name service requests, but I was hoping someone on this list would know more.
