Our internal DNS does lookups from the outside DNS, so it should work, but
it appears to just not be querying the proxy. I tried using the quites as
a previous poster suggested, still no go.
Interestingly, the 2.1.1 rhn-applet DOES work with the proxy. I can see
there is an update for up2date now, so maybe I should grab that with a web browser,
and try again.
