in fact it was a problem in resolv.conf. it was pointing to another dns
server instead of itself. my mistake.
it ocurred because i changed resolv.conf to the right options but as i am
virtualizing with proxmox i forgot to change dns setting in the container
so it took the previous value at restart.
