I only have the following lines in resolv.conf:

nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

These are my ISP's nameservers.  I also have bind setup as well, but it
doesn't seem to recognise localhost when I do a dig.  The above nameservers
are also setup as forwarders in named.conf.

The problem still exists (as below).
