john,
try to debug it on the following steps
1. make sure dns daemons is up
issue "netstat -a |grep domain| grep LISTEN" at 10.1.3.4
if not here, that means u haven't up the DNS daemon
2. "telnet 10.1.3.4 53" at 10.1.3.5
if shown "connected" that means connection is ok.
if not, network problem.
If above steps cannot solve problems, I've u have to
conc. on dns configuration files, like named.conf or
/var/named ....
