Unable to resolve hostname on a proxy network
- by ali
I can browse sites using firefox configured with proxy
172.1.6.0.6:3128  
resolv.conf  
domain   pudhcp.ac.in  
search pudhcp.ac.in  
nameserver 172.16.0.7
I checked with Windows and I found the same DNS server settings  
127.0.0.1       bt  
127.0.1.1       bt  
Above is the hosts file
I modified the top line from localhost to bt still not working
bt is the hostname
Still I can't ping to google.com - it is showing 
  unable to resolv hostname  
I tried all solutions,I guess proxy is used even for DNS resolution  
root@bt:~# dhclient  
There is already a pid file /var/run/dhclient.pid with pid 7157  
killed old client process, removed PID file
