Thanks for the help. This is on my laptop, so the DNS server depnds on where
I am. At home on DSL, my IP assigns the DNS server by name, rather than
numerical address. E.g.:

domain myip.net
search myip.net

This is where I have the problem. If the DNS server is assigned as a
numerical address, it works fine. I've noticed this when am at other
locations. Hence the opendns workaround solves the problem at home because
the DNS server is assigned as a numerical address. E.g.

nameserver 208.67.222.222

I have not tried "single-request" in /etc/resolv.conf. I didn't really
understand how to do that. Just add a line that says "single-request" at the
end? start? of /etc/resolv.conf?
