Well, I went to Network Solutions and got msn's IP number and then fired up pppconfig (which did not again ask me for the DNS)
 
I used emacs to edit in the IP numbers in /etc/resolv.conf
 
As far as I can tell, after entering in pon msn, the system never dialed out. That seemed to be confirmed by a quick exit in /var/log/messages
 
Suggestions?
