I assume you can ping the ip assigned to the domain you are attempting to ping?

What is in your resolv.conf ?

Are the DNS servers in it actually active ? If you have not, try making one as 127.0.0.1 to resolve the server sites and then one as one of Servermatrix DNS server and if you are hosting your own, use yours after that.
