You could check your DNS Server with "host" e.g.: host www.example.com 127.0.0.1 That would query the nameserver on 127.0.0.1 (localhost) for the name www.example.com. If this reports the right IP: Have you checked your /etc/hosts? Maybe you set your system to check that first and you got the name there? Just some thoughts from my side ...
