    how do I change the dns address in mandriva? It's set to 192.168.1.178 for some reason. It won't let me change it in control center so I'm looking for the konsole command to do this, thanks.

    *edit* nvm got it :)

    If readers in future want to know, you can edit your DNS servers by hand.

    The file in question is the /etc/resolv.conf file.
    add the line
    Code:
    nameserver IP
    where IP is the IP address of your DNS server. This is normally updated when needed if the client is using DHCP.
