Somehow the orignal dns kept returning.
Went to LDP website and learn i have to edit
resolv.conf and enter my DNS there. done it AND...
Hoorray I'm on the net.
but everytime i reboot the old dns number is back and
even if i change it, after a while my changes get
discarded.
Can anyone know how to permanently changed it?
Which other file i should edit in order to accomplish
my mission?.
I use Apache Inetshare with DHCP on a dual AMD 2000+
computer.
thx.
DHCP is what keeps changing it on you. The default DHCP configuration
updates /etc/resolv.conf with the name server information if it is
included as part of the DHCP information. So, if you want to specify
your own name server, you have to turn it off. I can not check the
exact wording right now, but I believe Peer DNS is what you are looking
for. Turn it off, edit /etc/resolv.conf, and you should be all set.
