Hi folks,
I use dial-up and sometimes my ISP "looses" its DNS server for some
reason. If I try to go to a site, it just says looking up and sits
there until it times out. Going to the IP directly still works. My
question is this, is there a way to "reset" the DNS servers listed in
/etc/resolv.conf? I notice I have a script /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/40-dns.sh
that according to what I read is what sets the DNS server when I
connect. Is it safe for me to run that manually?
The reason I don't want to reconnect is because it is hard to get a good
connection out here. I usually get 19.2k but sometimes 21.6k. If I
keep trying I can get a 24k connection but it takes several times to get
that even. If I get a good one, I get a good tight grip on that puppy.
;-)
Thanks for the help.
Dale
