Suppose this were not true. The potential just inside the surface
would be different from that at the surface resulting in a potential
gradient. This would mean that there are field lines pointing inwards
or outwards from the surface. These lines cannot at the other end be
again on the surface, since the surface is equipotential. Thus, this
is possible only if the other end of the lines are at charges inside,
contradicting the premise. Hence, the entire volume inside must be
at the same potential.

To find the potential at distance r from the line consider the electric
field. We note that from symmetry the field lines must be radially
outward. Draw a cylindrical Gaussian surface of radius r and length l.
