Ahem... Thanks Graham, but you might actually want to read my question
before answering :-)

This does NOT address my question at all (how do we know what DNS PPP
is using when none is defined)...

Somebody have any ideas?

my resolv.conf:
order hosts,bind

result of nslookup www.hp.com.:
Server:  dungeon
Address:  0.0.0.0

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:    www.hp.com
Addresses:  192.151.11.13, 192.151.11.32, 192.151.52.13

Thanks again...
