I also encountered this issue in Leopard 10.5.1 -  this is the procedure
under which I resolved the issue. Hopefully it will work for you as well.
1. Open System Preferences
2. Open Sharing
3. Click Edit... under Computer Name
4. Check the checkbox next to Use dynamic global hostname
5. LEAVE ALL FIELDS under dynamic global hostname BLANK - there isn't any
field validation
6. Click OK

The State:/Network/PrivateDNS key remains unchanged, but seems to affect the
system configuration elsewhere allowing DNS resolution to succeed.
