What should my resolv.conf look like? Thanks.

So, you do NOT have a router? Then keep dhcp. If your ISP has
assigned you
a static IP, then you should ask them for specifics. Most do not
assign
static IP though.
If it's the ISP issuing a static IP then he won't need to (use the -s
flag) to ask for it. They'll issue it to him if he uses a standard
DHCP request to ask for just any old IP. DHCP servers can be
configured to always issue the same IP to a given MAC address and
ADSL ISPs in the UK issue static IPs via DHCP according to PPP
authentication info. There's surely no need for him to specify it.
Stroller.
