/etc/resolv.conf resets after every reboot in FC3

As I've said in previous posts, I am a total newbie to Linux and I know nothing of it's ways so please excuse this stupid question:
I am runninf FC3 and am trying to change my DNS servers, so I change the /etc/resolv.conf file. By default it is set to 192.168.0.1 which is not what I want it to point to. So I then change it to 194.73.73.94 and it works fine... until I reboot. When I reboot it resets to 192.168.0.1. I tried changing the CHMOD but that didnt work. I also tried Network Device Control. That didnt work either. Any help would be greaty appreciated.

Sorry, I posted this in the wrong forum and accidently put a link at the end. :S

Hi.

There's two files to look at. I'm not sure which one it is, or why they aren't just linked, but anyway...
/etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0
and
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

I'd just change both of them, as they contain the same data on my machine.
