That looks like a bogus error.  Most likely you can ignore it.

Hmm...  Just for fun, edit /etc/resolv.conf and make it look like
this:

nameserver 207.179.200.2
nameserver 207.179.200.10

In other words, get rid of the comments and any extra whitespace.  If
that doesn't work, add a "search" line (add a line like "search
luci.org" at the beginning).

If all that doesn't work, I'd suggest setting up a local resolver.
Just install the bind and caching-nameserver packages, fire up named,
and make your first nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf "0.0.0.0".
