Subject: ping: unknown host ?

Howdy, Y'all:

  My host, 'router', seems to not be resolving host names to IP addresses.

  I can ping by IP address, but not by domain name. i.e.
ping 206.141.251.2
  is find, whereas
ping gelm.net
  fails with error:
ping: unknown host gelm.net.

This is my router (DSL<>LAN) and is functioning as the local
domain name server, but cannot serve its self. ?

Attached is the output of
netstat -r
route -n
resolv.conf

  What is not working?

Chuck
