I have always added my ISP's nameservers address to /etc/resolv.conf and
have found that most ISPs tend to specify that you should set up Windows
DUN for server assigned DNS addresses. On occasions I have found it very
difficult to get hold of actual numeric addresses.
Can nameserver addresses be otained dynamically with Linux? All the
documentation I have read points to physically adding the address to
/etc/resolv.conf
I use ISDN and have upgraded to Woody.
