Err..isn't nslookup outdated? Dig is more like it.

But nslookup works for me the way i want. I wouldn't start using dig unless the distros remove it by default :-)

Can you post the output of the following?
/sbin/ifconfig -a /sbin/lsmod /sbin/route -n cat /etc/resolv.conf
Check my ADSL BSNL DataOne documentation: http://www.shakthimaan.com -> BSNL DataOne

P.S.: Can the moderators reply to me in private as to why my previous two e-mails were not approved? They were pretty straight-forward replies.

Hi, It is most probably something at MTNL and not on your comp, because...
We have two locations (Deonar & Govandi) with MTNL TriBand connections. Both come under Mankhurd Exchange.
Between the dates of 15-19th Jun, I had similar experiences.... (a) can ping MTNL DNS (b) can access "mumbai.mtnl.net.in" website (c) CANNOT access any other website (includes google, yahoo, indiatimes, etc)
So did the following cycle on 3-4 occasions in that period (15-19th)....
(a) registered complaints with on their helpdesk (Tel. no. 1504). (b) some MTNL call-center returns calls within 10-20 minutes. (c) They telephonically as you to do (usual) checks/steps (to verify if ADSL device is working, computer working, browser working, etc). (d) apparently arrive at conclusion all is ok at (our) site. (e) agree to revert after making some checks (on back end). (f) some 1-2 hours later MTNL calls again to check all ok (g) we check and find sites are accessible again. (h) so we respond to MTNL that all ok now.
I conclude that it must have been something at the MTNL back-end. I presume none at MTNL will confirm or explain what it was at the back-end that fixed the problem or why it occured.
Hope this helps.

do you have a caching nameserver running on your machine? if so, in your etc/resolv.conf put this line first: nameserver 127.0.0.1
