Well I suppose that's the weird thing I can ping and trace to www sites and it will resolve when my Primary DNS is in active but using a browser through the proxy I get the following:
The requested URL could not be retrieved
While trying to retrieve the URL: http://abc.net.au
The following error was encountered:
Unable to determine IP address from host name for abc.go.com
The dnsserver returned:
Name Server for domain 'abc.go.com' is unavailable.
This means that:
The cache was not able to resolve the hostname presented in the URL.
Check if the address is correct.
