The file is getting updated and the operation exits with error "Timeout was
reached".
Sorry, but is that the error message from curl when it fails?
I am able to "ping www.google.com" and "ping my_ftp_server" with 8.8.8.8 as
the only entry in the resolv.conf file, but the curl operation fails.
Which libcurl version? On Linux? What name resolver backend does your libcurl
use? 'curl -V' shows.
Can you please be more specific about the exact error message and return code
you get from libcurl?
As Dan Fandrich already asked you on curl-users: Can you use the Google DNS
server manually? e.g. does "host www.google.com 8.8.8.8" or "dig
www.google.com @8.8.8.8" return anything?
