Sorry for not getting back any sooner, went camping in the mountains for a

defaultrouter=192.168.1.1  in your /etc/rc.conf.

If you are using this machine as a gateway for the other machines and it is 
between your FIOS router and the other machines, the defaultrouter value for 
the other machines would point to the gateway box's internal facing address.

thanks for the suggestion! but the other machines on this network do
not use the FreeBSD machine as a router. They merely reference it as
their first choice of DNS servers. So as of now networking is good to
go for all machines.

best!!

 That was the next thing I was about to suggest. His FIOS router should be
 running DNS itself by default, with it pointing to Verizon's name servers.
 So he could try using 192.168.1.1 in his named.conf forwarders directive.
 This would just recurse out to Verizon's name servers and should get a basic
 external resolution going, provided he has not altered the default router
 setup.

 Example from mine: (don't just cut and paste but adjust as required)

 options {

 The first two IP addresses in my forwarders clause are for OpenDNS. You
 could delete them so as to only have 192.168.1.1 and your FreeBSD's DNS
 server will then forward requests to your FIOS router which will then
 request from Verizon. Use of the listen-on and allow-recursion is not
 necessary, but if you decide to utilize make sure they reflect values which
 apply to your situation. Do rndc reload or reboot to take effect.

 I think he has some other issues pending as well, but one thing at a time.

This is the current state of affairs:

PING yahoo.com (69.147.125.65): 56 data bytes

I made sure these services were commented out or set to no in
/etc/rc.conf and /etc/defaults/rc.conf and that they were not running

[r...@lbsd2:/usr/home/bluethundr]#ps auxwww | grep rpcbind

Once I was sure those services weren't running I tried these flavors
of /etc/fstab:

[r...@lbsd2:/usr/home/bluethundr]#cat /etc/resolv.conf
domain  summitnjhome.com
nameserver  192.168.1.44
nameserver  71.250.0.12
nameserver  4.2.2.2

With this here config I can resolve internally but not externally

[r...@lbsd2:/usr/home/bluethundr]#ping yahoo.com
ping: cannot resolve yahoo.com: Host name lookup failure

With this suggested config I actually get neither internal nor
external resolution!

nameserver 192.168.1.44
nameserver 71.250.0.12

sum1.summitnjhome.com   canonical name = lCent01.summitnjhome.com.
Name:   lCent01.summitnjhome.com
Address: 192.168.1.42


My gateway is a FiOS router at 192.168.1.1 I have a semi-fancy netgear
switch that provides wired connectivity to my farm of 6 machines.

1) FreeBSD (God machine) that is SSH gateway, DNS/BIND server,
OpenLDAP server, Apache22 server and MySQL 5.1 server.
2) Centos 1 machine - host xen instances that are stored on a san
3) Centos 2 machine - hosts the rest of the xen instances all of which
are stored in the same NFS nas mount (/mnt/store/xen).
4) FreeNAS 1
5) FreeNAS 2
6) Client machine (non server)

The BSD really kinda runs the show I use that as the base from which
to operate. But now it's hobbled with only semi-functioning DNS!

 I was able to download the ports tarball from the freebsd ftp site
and scp it over to the bsd host.  so that minor crisis has been
solved. (grin).

 But it is still quite necessary for me to get this host resolving
external hosts of course!

 And yes I now realize that csup is part of the base system. But in
order for me to use it I must resolve!

 Not sure how this might have cause this but I edited my fstab file
with some nfs mounts like so:

192.168.1.44:/mnt/nas/mnt/nas   nfsrsize=32768,wsize=32768,timeo=14,intr
192.168.1.44:/mnt/store /mnt/store nfsrsize=32768,wsize=32768,timeo=14,intr
192.168.1.44:/mnt/home  /home  nfsrsize=32768,wsize=32768,timeo=14,intr

And when I rebooted the host pretty much it all went haywire! LDAP,
DNS, Apache, MySQL, and even ALL NETWORKING which normally started
with the host stopped working. I now have to start each one by hand
whatever I try I can't seem to resolve external hosts, tho.

 So I restored the fstab file from backup and still I am stuck not resolving.

 /etc/resolv.conf looks ok to me so I would think I that I could ping
out of the network. Sadly this is not the case!

 csup is cvsup rewritten with C and exists in the base system. You no longer

 You do not have to use sysinstall just to install ports. It is available as
 a tarball you can download and decompress. Use csup afterwards for an update
 to ensure you have pulled in any changes which may have occurred after the
 tarball was generated.

 You will, of course, need to get your network working first.

  Also the rest of the network is currently working. I am writing this
 to you from another machine on the same network as the bsd machien.
 

Even with IPv6 enabled things should still function even though IPv6 may not 
actually be in use. Sometimes it happens with DNS lookups it will try 
looking for an  record first [IPv6], then time out and fall back to the 
normal IPv4 A record. This will just show as a short wait period and 
ultimately eventually resolves.

I suspect that you are not even getting this far and the problem is 
something else. Just for the sake of simplifying things you could eliminate 
IPv6 from the picture if you are truly not using it. However, I do not think 
it is actually the cause (I could always be wrong here).
 
[snip - forgetting about csup and ports for now]
 
  Not sure how this might have cause this but I edited my fstab file
 with some nfs mounts like so:
 
 192.168.1.44:/mnt/nas/mnt/nas   nfs   
 rsize=32768,wsize=32768,timeo=14,intr
 192.168.1.44:/mnt/store /mnt/store nfs   
 rsize=32768,wsize=32768,timeo=14,intr
 192.168.1.44:/mnt/home  /home  nfs   
 rsize=32768,wsize=32768,timeo=14,intr

This truly has me confused. In the above ifconfig output it is showing an IP 
address assigned of 192.168.1.44 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255.

What I do not understand at all is why you would be wanting to NFS mount 
from 192.168.1.44 *to* 192.168.1.44, as indicated by the above fstab 
entries.

Again, for the sake of simplification with divide and conquer, make sure all 
mountd, rpcbind, nfs_server, and nfs_client daemons are deactivated. 
Eliminate all things superfluous to troubleshooting the DNS problem. Once 
DNS gets fixed you can add stuff back one at a time.
 
 And when I rebooted the host pretty much it all went haywire! LDAP,
 DNS, Apache, MySQL, and even ALL NETWORKING which normally started
 with the host stopped working. I now have to start each one by hand
 whatever I try I can't seem to resolve external hosts, tho.
 
  So I restored the fstab file from backup and still I am stuck not
  resolving.

Yes - leave fstab with no remote mounting/NFS stuff for now.
 
  /etc/resolv.conf looks ok to me so I would think I that I could ping
 out of the network. Sadly this is not the case!
 
You should be able to ping by IP any/all machines within your local network. 
Sounds like this does work, but confirm and don't 'assume'. Next try and 
ping by IP to a host out on the Internet. Since you cannot resolve any names 
here is the IP to  www.netbsd.org:   204.152.190.12. If you cannot ping by 
IP out from your network to the outside you do not have basic gateway 
connectivity working. If this is the case it will have to get fixed first.

If you are attempting this from the same machine as you are running BIND on, 
it might be better for it's resolv.conf to look like this instead:

nameserver 127.0.0.1
nameserver 192.168.1.1

192.168.1.1 is my FIOS router which has it's own DNS server. It is also 
pointed at the same OpenDNS servers as my forwarders directive (a snippet 
from my named.conf below:)

listen-on   { 127.0.0.1; 192.168.10.1; };

allow-recursion {127.0.0.1; 192.168.10.0/24;};

forwarders {
 208.67.222.222; 208.67.220.220; 192.168.1.1;
};
 
My local DNS on my gateway/firewall box is a hybrid which only has zones for 
my local .test.zip 192.168.10.0/24 LAN. All other requests get forwarded out 
and cached. Here is what sockstat -4l looks like on this box:

Your network interface isn't connecting to anything, such as a hub, switch, 
or another computer via crossover cable at the physical layer. You need to 
fix this first, then worry about why the DNS is not working. 

Start with simple things such as substituting a known good cable from a 
working machine. Examine the LEDs on both the NIC and the hub/switch. 
Usually these will not be lit if there is no link. Is the hub/switch 
defective? Or locked up? I've seen hubs and switches lock up and a power 
cycle would make them operate again, for a while. Hubs or switches that lock 
up have an intermittent defect and should not be depended upon for the long 
run. 

Verify if you are using the correct driver. What version is the OS? Search 
bug reports and mail lists for known issues, e.g. such as someone else 
reported a problem with quite similar symptoms and the devs have already 
addressed it in HEAD and possibly MFC'd it to STABLE. 

Of course, if there is a fix you can't get at it until your network works. 
But you can also back up the train and tell us things like: did it used to 
work? and what did you do, or change, that made it begin not working? Some 
more details might give the 'fresh set of eyes' more to work with.
