Hello there,

I have been using my dell machine as gateway using redhat 6.0 to 7.0 with
out any problem for past almost three years but after upgrading to redhat
7.1. The machine is not able reaching dns server. when I check  nslookup and
dig keep getting  Connection timed out; no server could be reach  message
and same thing with redhat 7.2 too.  I have checked all resolv.conf,
host.conf, hosts and nsswitch.conf  all dns info and lookup files are there.
I was also trying to telnet the dns server through port 53 but keep getting
unknown host. But from my windows machine the dns servers are reachable
works fine.

If you have some idea, please drop me a line.

Thanks, Pawlos
