can't ping hosts outside local network
I am using ubuntu 7.04 on my laptop.Its connected to a local network.Internet is avaialble on my system thru a proxy server (CCproxy)on a windows machine on our local network. The problem is that i cannnot ping hosts like google.com. pinging IPs on local network works. How can I enable ping..?

Sounds like either you computer doesn't know the gateway through which to send those pings or they're being filtered by the proxy.

I think you must be using firefox to route through your proxy..... Okay here is the deal.... Try the following things on your linux box and post here: Code:
ping 208.67.222.222 Login as root using Code:
#su Code:
root#vi /etc/resolv.conf Code:
nameserver 208.67.222.222 Then try pinging google, otherwise post here and i will help |
