I have followed these instructions earlier. after rm -fv csf.tgz nothing changes.
When i try wget http://www.configserver.com/free/csf.tgz i get error " failed: temporary failure in name resolution". wget: unable to resolve host address "configserver.com"

What can i do?

Fixed it!
echo 'nameserver 8.8.8.8'> /etc/resolv.conf

 

[iserversupport]

what is in your /etc/resolv.conf now?

Try adding below lines to your /etc/resolv.conf


nameserver 4.2.2.2
nameserver 4.2.2.1

echo 'nameserver 8.8.8.8'> /etc/resolv.conf

Congratulation for fixing your problem.

This can be done from WHM also.
