I find that in my CentOS, which is installed in vmware, I can use yum to install software from Internet, and I can also ping websites, but I cannot download stuff using wget. I receive error msg unable to resolve host address “xxxxx”. The IP address is 192.168.80.128, and this is the content of /etc/resolv.conf # Generated by NetworkManager domain localdomain search localdomain nameserver 192.168.80.2

ping 192.168.80.128

and/or

traceroute 192.168.0.128

Does it work?

wget http://192.168.80.128/whatever

Does it work?

wget yourname/whatever

That apparently doesn't work.

If the other do, then your problem is that there is no dns entry for 192.168.80.128 on your dns server located at 192.168.80.2
