to change your DNS, you have to edit "/etc/resolv.conf"

Code:

cat /etc/resolv.conf

shows you it's current content, there should be exactly one line = "nameserver 127.0.0.1"
this is the default setting.

to use a different nameserver, you can again use echo in an xterm as root:

Code:

echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" > /etc/resolv.conf
