PROBLEM SOLVED !!!!!
my hosts-entry in nsswitch.conf was different. It looked like:
hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4
and then my brain finally cut in again. mdns4 is some mysterious namecaching-stuff related to apples zeroconf-protocoll that came to my server (ubuntu 7.10) with something like avahi-daemon. I could not remove in on the fly (cause ubuntu-desktop-package is depending on this little unwanted and unneeded daemon), so I simply changed my nsswitch.conf to
hosts: files dns
as you recommended and as it should be and ... voila ... everything is working as it should.
There are serveral reports on internet about extremely slow networks with avahi-daemon and ready a line like mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] might give us an idea, why :)

I want to thank you a lot for helping me out here and for your effort and patience to help me. I never thought at nsswitch.conf and while I scanned my system for usual dns-caching-tools I never thought of this avahi-stuff.
thnx a lot !!
