the firewall allows DNS requests. port 53, 80, 443 open for tcp and udp

Sameer,

That ip address 192.168.0.111 is a private address, so I presume you are on an internal network.

The resolve.conf on the client has a spelling error - it should be

nameserver 192.168.0.111

Fix that and try again?

Note that CentOS will overwrite /etc/resolv.conf everytime you reboot. Google CentOS or RedHat resolv.conf to find a number of solutions to that issue.

Cheers
