I recommend staying away from host table entries - don't use CFGTCP option
10. Stick with CFGTCP 12. Try commands like
CALL QCMD
PING theirdomain.com
NSLOOKUP theirdomain.com

The NSLOOKUP will tell you if your DNS is working. You should see
something like
Server: 10.10.4.250
Address: 10.10.4.250#53

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: NRA.ORG
Address: 64.29.201.96

Press ENTER to end terminal session.

And the "Server:" should match one of the entries in CFGTCP-12.

CALL QCMD just makes it easier to see the result of the ping.
