OK so i am trying to configure the network on my Gentoo machine

/etc/conf.d/net file contains the entries that i've listed below

Код:

config_eth0=( "7.0.0.34 netmask 124.124.124.0 brd 3.124.124.124" )
routes_eth0=( "default via 7.0.0.9" )
dns_servers_eth0="14.96.345.12 175.230.77.154 64.31.142.42"

Now when i try to test the networking

Код:

ping 7.0.0.9
34 bytes from 7.0.0.9: icmp_seq=1 ttl=330 time=0.655 ms

cat /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 14.96.345.12
nameserver 175.230.77.154
nameserver 64.31.142.42

The Script must create

Код:

ping www.badweeny.com
ping www.badweeny.co.uk

but the domain name is not at all resolving and this is seriously pissing me off, i've been trying this the whole day yesterday

i would be glad to get some help.

Are you trying to do a reverse look up or resolve the domain itself? Which DNS server are you using?

[RanSEE]

i am simply trying to resolve the domain

EDIT
OOH
I forgot to ping the nameservers:

Код:

ping 14.96.345.12
ping: Network in unreachable

ping 175.230.77.154
ping: Network in unreachable

I have a different problem than what I first thought.
I guess that the packets are not being forwarded to the default gateway.

p.s: I have other computers on the LAN that are using the same gateway and
resolver addresses, and they are working fine.

Try using ****** DNS, though it's not for long term usage.
