For a couple of days, DNS resolving does not work anymore (but ping does). I tried several DNS servers, all with the same problem.
In addition, I noticed that probably my CMOS battery died (at least there is a preboot message "time of day not set" and the date / time is not saved between system boots).
When I manually set the correct date / time as a workaround, DNS resolving works again. I would like to understand how DNS resolving and system date / time are connected and why DNS resolving does not work when the date / time are incorrect.
