[hobbit] DNS Test - No Record Lookup

Well I can tell you for certain that Xymon 4.2.0 with a bb-hosts of

74.218.88.168   yaright.imaginenetworksllc.com # ssh dns

Which surely asks the question dig yaright.imaginenetworksllc.com @
yaright.imaginenetworksllc.com based on the output.  From my understanding
this is your desired result, too.

Wed Sep 23 17:59:25 2009 dns ok

Service dns on yaright.imaginenetworksllc.com is OK (up)

id: 35094
flags: qr rd ra
opcode: QUERY
rcode: NOERROR
Questions:
yariht.imaginenetworksllc.com. A
Answers:
yaright.imaginenetworksllc.com. 1791 A 74.218.88.168
<snip>


That being the case I don't understand why it would simply say "OK" before.
I think this is going to help identify the issue.

Have you tried:

dns=A:google.com
