perhaps you should have used "ping dupaa.com." instead?

in one of my other lives we learned that if you don't also want the local domain 
to be searched, you must add the trailing dot to signify that that is the end of 
the domain and no additional searches should be done... we see this with all 
manner of DNS clients...

just tossing that out there... maybe it will help?
