[newbie] resolv.conf goes to different ip as soon as ppp0 starts

[Ed Tharp]

resolv.conf goes to different ip as soon as ppp0 starts? what is  up with
that? these numbers change as soon as ppp0 starts and I open resolv.conf to
see them. any ideas? and so far I have not been sucessfull at keeping
ipchains from starting, and do not get past the error messages unless I use
the "I" option when mandrake goes into interactive phaase.
