The xymonnet column for shepherd remained purple until the DNS servers came back. It almost seemed like Xymon could not "find itself"?

Any thoughts on ways to combat this issue?
What's logged in your xymonnet.log file ?

Are your network tests and the Xymon website on the same server, or 
different servers ?

Do you have a local caching DNS server, or does your resolv.conf point 
to remote DNS servers ?
