I got it to work now.
All I needed was the correct nameserver address to the existing table
entry. In my case it was 172.17.51.28
I don't remember it working like this before... but just because I don't
remember doesn't mean it didn't.
172_17_50_0-255_255_254_0 172.17.50.0 255.255.254.0 eth0
172.17.50.1 172.17.51.121 172.17.51.28
Thanks to everyone who had suggestions.
