The gateway gets two name servers from the network and I have added 
three others to the gateway /etc/resolv.conf that I know work. 

On the client /etc/resolv.conf shows the gateway: 192.168.1.1 and no 
other name server. 

I can ping all the name servers in the /etc/resolv.conf on the gateway 
from both the gateway and the client. 

I can reach the gateway on the client by ssh. 

Thanks, Aric
