While I see that you have already solved your problem, I thought it worth 
noting that dhcpcd and dhclient are client programs for DHCP (Dynamic Host 
Configuration Protocol) which is what your computer uses to get an IP 
address dynamically. They are *not* DNS clients. dig and nslookup are, but 
I believe that at this point nslookup is deprecated and dig is the 
preferred tool.

Cheers,
