Hi there,
That means what it says ;-). Your DNS settings don't seem to be right.
Edit your /etc/resolve.conf

The contents of my /etc/resolve.conf are as follows

search rs.internic.net
nameserver 202.54.30.1
nameserver 202.54.30.2

Where 202.54.30.1 and 202.54.30.2 are the IP's of the nameservers of my ISP.

Don't worry about the search thing

you can put search some_dummy_name
Hope this helps
Regards
	Khader
