Re: ppp daemon resolv.conf empty



I looked in the file /etc/resolv.conf and there was nothing in it. 
That's what ls -l gives too.  
deblnx:~# ls -l /etc/resolv.conf 
total 0 
deblnx:~# 
 I was thinking of looking through the dvd I installed from but this
file probably gets  
set-up/created during installation.  
Once again, Thanks for your knowledgable asist!!
