As far as resolv.conf, if you are running DCHD, then the file

(Also ifcfg-eth1 if you have one.) There are some logs in /var/logs
that may help as well, but I don't remember exactly where Mandrake
puts things, and you don't want to post /var/log/messages!
Should I remove dhcp, since this is a single user desktop machine I have
no use for networking unless necessary for other things. There is no
eth1.
No, you need it to configure the port to talk to your router.

Typo on my part - should be /etc/sysconfig/network
cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
ONBOOT=yes
MII_NOT_SUPPORTED=no
WIRELESS_ENC_KEY=""
NEEDHOSTNAME=yes

One thing I forgot to ask you - does your ISP use PPPoE? One way to
check this is in Windows run winipcfg and check what interfaces you
have. If you are using PPPoE, someone else on the list can probably
walk you through the proper way of setting it up.
