setting up networking

hi folks,

i'm trying to set up dns on my udb running redhat 4.
my machine sees the network and everything on it. but
it does not see itself. e.g. you do a "telnet my_host_name"
and it says:
my_host_name: Host name lookup failure

you do a "nslookup my_host_name" and it says:
Server: localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1

*** localhost can't find my_host_name: Non-existent host/domain

however, my_host_name is listed in the dns files, as well as in
the /etc/hosts.

any help would be greatly appreciated!

thanks!
yash
