This works
Good.
This does not - dest unreachable
Do you have a gateway? Remeber a proxy and gateway are different although they can be on the same machine. If you have a gateway then it is not forwarding ICMP ECHO packets. Can you do: $ traceroute google.com
I still would like to know what you are trying to achieve? Anything particular you want?

Where do dnscache and djbdns come into the picture?

Since he is using a proxy server, he may have to change the port settings that his pc uses for http, ftp, pop etc. if they are not the same after the proxy was setup. An example taken from Nagarjuna. 'export http-proxy=http://proxy_ip_addesss:new_port' This is necessary, to use net from console. Firefox has its own settings separate in its GUI.
I don't know where dnscache and djbdns come into the picture. I don't use it.
Quoting Rony ronbillypop@yahoo.co.uk:
Its not http-proxy .... export http_proxy=http://proxy_ip_addesss:new_port More detail export http_proxy=http://user:password@proxy_ip_addesss:port/ export ftp_proxy=http://user:password@proxy_ip_addesss:port/
