Works for me ...
It appears that dns|dig is not defined in bb-services, is that right?
Yes, they are "built-in" to the bbtest-net program - mostly because they use a special library, whereas the tests in bb-services are implemented in a more generic fashion.
Could you try building the "adig" utility that comes with the DNS library Hobbit uses: Go to the bbnet/c-ares/ directory, and: $ gcc -I. -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -o adig adig.c .libs/libcares.a
This should give you an "adig" binary. Then run
$ ./adig -s IP.OF.DNS.SERVER -t A HOSTNAME.OF.DNS.SERVER
(substitute the IP+hostname you have in bb-hosts). This is the lookup that Hobbit's dns/dig tests perform. Does that work ?
Could you show me the entry you have in bb-hosts for your dns/dig tests? And how does it fail - does the dns/dig status show up on the Hobbit web page? If it does, what error does it report? What happens if you run (as the hobbit user):
bbcmd bbtest-net --debug HOSTNAME.WITH.DNS.TEST
