GIT Centos 5 Problems

I've recently installed the GIT on a Rackspace cloud server. The installation was done through the Fedora EPEL packages.

In my IPTables I've added the accept for port 9418: -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 9418 开发者_如何学C-j ACCEPT

Now on the server when I go to clone a repositary, I get this error.

git clone git://www_dev.####.com/public
Cloning into public...
fatal: Unable to look up www_dev.#####.com (port 9418) (Name or service not known)

Does anyone have an idea of what is causing this error?

Your DNS server can't resolve www_dev.####.com to an IP. If you can find the IP, add an entry to /etc/hosts and see if it works then. If so, you'll need to find a DNS server that knows that host name or else get it registered with a DNS server yourself.
