Good assessment Steve.  I suspect this will solve Jeff's problem.

One more hint: I use a command called "linuxconf" to configure
networking
and other stuff sometimes.  It has a networking section that allows you
to
specify all kinds of important parameters such as IP address.....
However, you probably won't need this program because I suspect Steve's
/etc/resolv.conf solution will take care of things.

OK...I've fiddled with all that stuff, so I'm vaguely familiar with it. 
So the question would be - what IP address and/or nameserver should I be
using?  I thought the point of dhcp was so none of that stuff was
static.  I, not being the TCP/IP expert, don't quite understand.  I
guess I'm just looking for easy answers, i.e., "Put this nameserver at
location X and this IP address location Y, and you're set."
