	Okay, put in the list of servers you gave me, and in a few seconds got 
the following reply ... notice the last reply is one of the servers you 
gave me.

Feb 23 07:28:52 hermes dnsmasq[13705]: using nameserver 10.1.1.1#53 for 
domain nasrec.scania.co.za

Feb 23 07:29:04 hermes dnsmasq[13705]: nameserver 204.152.184.64 refused 
to do a recursive query

	So, we now think it could be a problem with my setup?

Thanks for all the help
