I have no real experience of this setup, yet (my friend and I will have to
set up a cable modem network soon)
your resolv.conf should really read more like:
<<BOF>>
domain kc.rc.com
search kc.rc.com rc.com
nameserver 24.94.163.114

although linux reconises your ethernet card it hasn't actually activated
and configured it yet. type in
"dhcpcd -h <hostname> eth0"
fill in a name for you machine in the <hostname> section. this _should_
get the dhcpcd client to sort out the ethernet card. However your cable
modem will need to be talking to the network. This I can't really help
with, however whilst browsing the WWW I have come across howto's on cable
modems. go to a good search engine (www.google.com :) ) and try searching
for the howto there.
