Well I was only trying to give a bit of help to the OP that wanted to install 
Tapeutape, and havn't experienced Lash before, but anyway, this is what I get 
from the nslookup.

$ nslookup localhost
Server:         213.36.80.1
Address:        213.36.80.1#53

** server can't find localhost: NXDOMAIN

Looking though directly in the /etc/hosts file I see this.

# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1  localhost.localdomain localhost
::1  localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6

So that appears ok.

Nigel.
