Becoming a DNS : Server is still on the enhancement list. To enable DNS client functionality on iX/4.0 or later, all you need is to either build the file RESLVCNF.NET.SYS or copy the file /etc/resolv.conf from any unix machine. The file contents and syntax are the same. There's also a sample file RSLVSAMP.NET.SYS on your system - copying it to RESLVCNF.NET.SYS and updating it to reflect your nameservers address and domain will make it a working setup.
