Oops, minor typo: it's /etc/resolv.conf.  (How dare you suggest that
an *entire English word* could be found in Unix? :) )

Have you got what you think to be your ISPs DNS servers in that
/etc/resolv.conf file?  If not, the Configuring Your Name Resolver
section of the Net HOWTO has a little overview of /etc/resolv.conf:
	http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Net-HOWTO/x413.html#AEN493 

(Ironically enough, though, the HOWTO itself has a typo when it
separates the keyword "nameserver" into "name server," which I'm
pretty sure is wrong.)
