Hello Linux friends,
when I dial to my ISP using my Linux box, is it possible to receive the
DNS server automatically, just like Windows users do?
I read at the PPP Howto and ppp man that pppd doesn't do that. And I
wonder: WHY NOT? Is it that hard? I've searched for this question in
many archives and also from altavista, but I found no answer.
In this specific situation, I can not set the "/etc/resolv.conf" file
manually. It really has to be done automatically (it can be added to
resolv.conf using a script or whatever).
I always like to think that "everything is possible with Linux", so it
must be possible. ;-)
Are there other choices to do dialup connections with Linux other than
pppd? (console apps that is).
Thanks,
Henrique Pantarotto
