That was it ! Many thanks :-)

The name resolver behaviour must have changed between core 2 and core
3?  Im using dnsmasq for the LAN, the server configuration is unchanged
- it was working against RH9,core1 and core 2 !

http://thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/doc.html

I don't understand this nameresolver problem.  Dig and nslookup say all
is fine, but ping says no - unless the name has an extra "."

I don't expect a tutorial, but which end is wrong, the name resolver
client in core 3 or the masqurading dns server ?

Cheers,
Jon
