I don't know what is going on, but I had a problem where
the first DNS lookup I'd ever do would almost always fail
(I'm running named as a local DNS server). I made a silly
little "system service" script to start immediately after
named and had it background several nslookup calls of names
I need early in the boot, and the mysterious failures
disappeared (or only happened to the nslookup calls where
I wouldn't notice).
