DNS servers for the 3000 is kept in RESLVCNF.NET.SYS.  It can be modified
with any text editor.

The link for this file is /etc/resolv.conf in the HFS name space.

It should look like this:

domain csillc.com
nameserver IP or hostname of nameserver 1
nameserver IP or hostname of nameserver 2
nameserver IP or hostname of nameserver 3
nameserver IP or hostname of nameserver 4
nameserver IP or hostname of nameserver 5

Most use only 2 or 3 servers -- our 5 consists of 2 inside and 3 ISP
provided.

Cheers,
Joe
