I am running a centos 5 image on the vmware player and as of recently, I was able to check out from a repository that is no longer working. I am now getting:

svn: Unknown hostname 'www.kennykong.com'

It is a valid hostname and I know this because I have this svn location on Windows and I can browse/checkout no problem. After doing some searching I have (mostly blindly) assumed it's a DNS error because

for i in 'grep nameserver /etc/resolv.conf | cut -d " " -f 2' ; do dig @$i domain.com ; done

returns

done ; <<>> DiG 9.3.6-P1-RedHat-9.3.6-4.P1.el5 <<>> @192.168.1.1 domain.com ; (1 server found) ;; global options: printcmd ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

I am unsure what to do from here to get my centos to recognize more servers
