Re: /etc/reslov.conf

if there is no /etc/resolv.conf then you can create it. debian prompts for DNS settings during install but if whoever installed it did not enter them i imagine it wouldn't create a resolv.conf. you can (as root) do: echo "nameserver IP_OF_NAMESERVER" >/etc/resolv.conf to create a basic resolv.c

/etc/reslov.conf

I can't find any /etc/resolv.conf file in Debian distribution. Do you know were it is or what similar file do I need to configure in order to set up this Debian box to specify the LAN DNS he should use ? Adrian Nims
