I assume you are speaking of 
Primary name server?

I have the DNS (gleaned from the other machines set here (aswell as Gateway)

Also in this window I have Try name server too ticked. This is followed by
after 'Host' file.

Looking in the Hosts file I find that Tristan has set 

# Donot olter theloopback entry
#
127,0.01   loopback localhost iyonix
10.0.0.2    a URL   carthage
10.0.6.1    similar URL  phoenix

These are the names of our dead server and a printer (I think)

A guess:

the software looks in the Hosts file? nothing happens so it then looks at
primary name server?

Also Resolver module is named as Resolver(Acorn) can't untick that one.
