![]() | This is the most critical part of a Linux connection to the internet. Unix systems MUST specify the DNS servers. You get them either by calling your ISP or viewing them on their support pages. If this fails, then you can use some High-level DNS servers to get you by while you find out this information. I'd also suggest putting at least one of these numbers at the bottom of your DNS server list in case your ISP has problems with its servers. In this example, the first 3 servers belong to Earthlink, and the last belongs to Network Solutions. Note that you do not have to use your ISP's DNS servers -- any valid DNS servers can be used. |
