Opendns setup failed. How to fix it?

Question

I have problems trying to configure OpenDNS. I have contacted OpenDNS support but they did not answer. I cannot access websites like Twitter and Facebook.

I tried welcome.opendns.com (did not work, shows not using OpenDNS.

Using nslookup:

 $ nslookup -type=txt which.opendns.com. 208.67.222.222
Server:     208.67.222.222
Address:    208.67.222.222#53

Non-authoritative answer:
which.opendns.com   text = "7.sin"

Authoritative answers can be found from:

$ nslookup -type=txt debug.opendns.com.
Server:     127.0.1.1
Address:    127.0.1.1#53

Non-authoritative answer:
debug.opendns.com   text = "server 3.sin"
debug.opendns.com   text = "flags 20 0 2f6 0"
debug.opendns.com   text = "id 13521181"
debug.opendns.com   text = "source 222.164.129.44:62574"

Answer 1

Try running dns-fix. This worked for me. Linux Mint 14 has OpenDNS built in so I think this just sets up the OpenDNS stuff for you.
