This means you do not have *any* active iptables rules at all. I think=20
it's your resolver setup, so please have a look in your /etc/resolv.conf=20
file to see where your queries goes. Here is the content of one of mine:

---start---
# cat /etc/resolv.conf
search your.domain.name
nameserver 127.0.0.1
nameserver 85.119.80.232
nameserver 85.119.80.233
---end---

OK, so that looks similar to mine. I have done some dig tests:

Interesting stuff. It seems that the two Bitfolk-supplied IP addresses
are down at the moment for whatever reason (probably worth asking Andy
what is going on via an email to support@???). For now I suggest
that you add the following line above the two other nameserver entries
in your file:

nameserver 8.8.8.8

That is a public resolver by Google, which seems to do a good enough
job at resolving odds and ends. Still, consider it a stop-gap for now
until you have sorted out what you need to know in order to install your
own local resolver (both bind and dnsmasq are excellent packages for
situations like this).

Jan Henkins
