Code:
nameserver   192.168.0.1
nameserver   192.168.0.100
is should appear with something like that with the correct DNS entries for your connection.

RE: DNS

Sorry about being anal, the last response was correct but I also add a line like the following:

search myispdomain.com

(or net or org or whatever your isp is using)

yeah you can use the search if your using DHCP or on a dialup. Usuall on dial up... it will have the nameservers with IP then followed by a *tmp or something like that I have noticed before, but the if you do know your DNS from your isp, the search is unnecessary in the file.
