No problems here:

$ uname -r
2.6.18-gentoo-r3

$ host www.google.com 205.171.3.65
Using domain server:
Name: 205.171.3.65
Address: 205.171.3.65#53
Aliases:
www.google.com is an alias for www.l.google.com.
www.l.google.com has address 72.14.205.147
www.l.google.com has address 72.14.205.99
www.l.google.com has address 72.14.205.103
www.l.google.com has address 72.14.205.104

Linux box --> DD-WRT router w/static ip --> Actiontec in transparent
bridge --> FRII/Qwest DSL.

My /etc/resolv.conf lists a local caching server and 2 FRII DNS servers.
