Debian Ditches DNS settings

hugeness · 07-24-2007, 06:45 PM

OK, just setup using the pared down disc, couldnt connect to the internet using 192.168.1.1 on the router, so input advised ip addresses for the ISP.
worked a treat, but as soon as i close the browser down, or restart, or restart the NIC it ditches the DNS addresses and leaves the connection down.
is there a flat file where i can hard code the ip addresses so it saves?
thanks!

This is the contents of my /etc/network/interfaces file:

Code:

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp

auto eth1

Adjust the eth1 entry to suit your config. Enter your DNS nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf This is mine:

Code:

nameserver 194.109.104.104
nameserver 194.109.6.66
