Call up your ISP and ask them for the IP to their DNS server. Then open up
linuxconfig and put that IP in under DNS server... (Though ISP's are being
asked to support some form of scripting to automate this process for the Linux
user's.) Speaking of which, you might want to bring it up when you call them :)

DNS "Domain Name Service", it's what translates names into IP's.
