The question is does your ISP provide automatic dns? Most do. If
yours does you should not have entered any dns addresses during
'adsl-setup' and your pppoe.conf should look like this,
<excerpt>
****
# DNS type: SERVER=obtain from server; SPECIFY=use DNS1 and DNS2;
# NOCHANGE=do not adjust.
DNSTYPE=SERVER
# Obtain DNS server addresses from the peer (recent versions of pppd
only)
# In old config files, this used to be called USEPEERDNS. Changed to
# PEERDNS for better Red Hat compatibility
PEERDNS=yes
DNS1=
DNS2=
