xymon 4.2.2 multiple dns tests failing since upgrade from 4.2.0



I upgraded to xymon 4.2.2 yesterday from hobbit 4.2.0, mainly so I can
start playing with bbwin client monitoring.

I built RPMs from the tarball after customizing the spec file. I'm also
working on a MacOSX universal binary install package for the client
because I've had enough of manually stuffing around doing it from
scratch. I've never played with PackageMaker before, but it can't be
that bad...

All is well except the dns monitoring is now red.

I use a pretty standard dns test for all my DNS servers, internal or
external. It is intended to check both our DNS zone and that every DNS
server can resolve external names. It's been working fine since bbgen
days and hobbit 4.2.0. The test is:

dns=a:ausport.gov.au,a:cnn.com

Now I'm getting failure of external lookup on all dns tests with
following appearing in each dns page:

Service dns on XXXX.ausport.gov.au is not OK : Service unavailable

Manual resolution of cnn.com is just fine.

I've been digging around but haven't found anything so far.

Thanks, David.
