I noticed something similar on one of my Linux machines last week. It
appears to be a DNS issue as shown below:

A dig for debian.org against the MSU DNS server returns no answer.

rob@netserver:~$ dig @[log in to unmask] debian.org
;; ANSWER SECTION:
;debian.org. IN A

But against an external DNS server (4.2.2.2) it returns the proper result.

rob@netserver:~$ dig @[log in to unmask] debian.org
;; ANSWER SECTION:
;debian.org. 3600 IN A 192.25.206.10

What DNS servers do you have assigned for your static machines? Perhaps
they are different than the ones the dynamic machines are querying.
