Thanks Steven, you are right, i was editing the wrong resolv.conf file. when i edited 
the resolv.conf file under chroot environment, i got connected right away. 

This part of the problem seems to be solved for now, let's see what happens next. i 
can't thank you guys enough (Steven Elling, Andrew Farmer, Marshal Newrock and Ian 
Truelsen).

Thanks again, until next time :)
