To confirm that this actually works do: $ nslookup gnu.org on your own machine.
This works
Good.
[ If you can not have a DNS then try: $ ping 199.232.41.10 If this fails, then read on.]
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?

$tracert google.com Unable to resolve target system name google.com.
I'm trying to get cvs to work from the console. Firefox seems to work fine with the proxy settings ... but not internet access from the bash console.

Did you try lynx browser from console? 'lynx www.google.com'

Say dig didn't work. What should we do then?
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.

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/
