Because 

host <blah> fails for this machine, but works for lots of others.

I think it's like this:
If you setup a new F10 box, and never play with any network setting or use 
NM, it works.  If you ever use NM, you're screwed.  I say this because the 
other machines that are working never had anyone login and mess with NM 
(these are all servers in a closet).
