After the 10.9 upgrade, name resolution is not working for me. Does anyone else see this?

My desktop is a wifi server for laptop access using windows. That works OK but the server, attached by ethernet to the DSL modem does not get names resolved since the upgrade. The resolvconf program is not installed according to whereis.

# cat /etc/resolv.conf
domain attlocal.net
search attlocal.net
nameserver 192.168.1.254

If that's not the right nameserver then what is?

Is "192.168.1.254" an IP address of your DSL modem?
If you don't need to resolve hostnames from you local network, like "somepc1.attlocal.net" and only want to access the Internet, you can configure one or more of the public DNS servers.
