I hope this is the right list for such questions.
Thanks.

Named isn't started by default, even if you install caching-nameserver.
Named doesn't need to be running if your /etc/resolv.conf points elsewhere. Do you have firewalls blocking port 53?
'dig' is usually a reasonable diagnostic tool.
I tried disabling the firewall, still nothing.
dig just reports "connection timed out; no servers could be reached"
