I already have that file with correct ipaddresses
Quite strange. The DNS client is installed and activated by default. Nothing special to do but the configuration via /etc/resolv.conf
You may open a terminal window and type in the command nslookup
Ignore the deprecated message. You should then try server
The answer should be the same IP which you'll find in resolv.conf
Then you may ask for an address: www.duke.edu
and you should get the address 152.3.233.7 and 152.3.233.20 resp.
You may leave the programm by <ctrl><c>
Does this happen as described?

Then your issue isn't DNS. You probably set up your firewall to block web access. Run [redhat|system]-config-securitylevel (also in the
main menu under "System Settings->Security Level") and make sure
you have a checkmark next to HTTP in the "Trusted Services" section.
