Here's what it contains:

# cat /etc/resolv.conf 
domain luannocracy.com
# nameserver 192.168.188.1
nameserver 207.172.3.8
nameserver 207.172.3.9
nameserver 207.172.3.10
nameserver 207.172.3.11

Interestingly, I can get it to succeed at doing nslookup, host, or dig
if I uncomment the first nameserver, which is my local router that
happens to forward to the nameservers shown in that list.  However,
traceroute fails without showing a single hop, and browsing the web is
hopeless.  I /can/ access addresses on my local subnet.

That was already the case, with a comment saying it was done by DHCP.
So I'm still stuck :-(

Anything else I can try?
