[hobbit] All network tests now purple

Rich,

I had some similar problems some time back -- it appears that that the
network test module can stall out if you have DNS problems, even though
it is not SUPPOSED to do so.  You can verify by adding the names that
are not being found to the host table on the network test host and see
if the problem clears up.

I setup bbtest-net with the --debug option and I see in the
bbnetwork.log file the following:

2006-10-27 07:49:54 Got DNS result for host gogen01 : 172.17.1.246
2006-10-27 07:49:54 DNS lookup failed for netwvrdev - status Domain name
not found (4)
2006-10-27 07:49:54 DNS lookup failed for tmpl - status Domain name not
found (4)
2006-10-27 07:49:54 DNS lookup failed for gots02 - status Domain name
not found (4)
2006-10-27 07:50:24 Got DNS result for host people3 : 172.17.1.243

All of the DNS 'Add...' messages and 'Got...' messages are issued with
in 1 second (07:49:53-07:49:54) for all hosts, except for the one called
people3 which comes back 30 seconds later.  The hosts with the 'DNS
lookup failed...' messages are all configured as dialup.

After this there are no additional messages in the file.
