Either your resolver lib config is hosed or your DNS server is not loading
the sub domain vn. (see below)

Looks like the clients resolver is properly appending the domain portion.
Good!

This looks like a DNS server config problem (NXDomain). Specifically, the
delegation records for zone vn.ibs-dp.com. Things to check:

1) Are you loading a zone named vn.ibs-dp.com that contains the SOA/NS
records along with the A records for server5?

2) Have you defined a TLD zone for vn.ibs-dp.com (ibs-dp.com) on your DNS
server that contains the proper delegation records for question 1 above? 

3) Are you loading a reverse zone for the 192.168.2.0/24 zone?

Finally, type: man dig

Take a look at all the + command line options. Some of them are great
debugging options. In particular, the +nssearch and +trace.
