Yes, I just have to figure out the way to do that ...
(I never compiled any solaris or bfu'd anything. I am still searching 
for info on which compiled version of Solaris (Solris Express or 
others) I can use the provided bfu scripts)

After these two lines I get

;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

However I can ssh into the nameserver with no problem. NFS mounts are 
no problem either.

Is this based on CentOS? Which version?
Or is it RHEL AS 3? Which Update?

This does not work in my setup.

My zone is actually on a different subnet. I will put it on the same 
subnet to check if it makes a difference.

This is the same.

I have also a domain and search entry.

The same.

The same, except that I do not run DHCP.
