asked on

Which dns server is assigned to my eth0 by dhcp

I don't know how to see which dns server is assigned to my eth0 port on my linux machine. With ifconfig I can see the ip-address, the mac-address etc. but not which dns server is assigned. How can I resolve this? Like in Windows you can see with winipcfg on win9x and with ipconfig/all on nt,2k,xp what dns server is assigned to the nic.
Please help.... i'm a newbie on linux!

The DNS servers are located in /etc/resolv.conf.

The format is :

nameserver IP_ADDRESS_OF_DNS
nameserver IP_ADDRESS_OF_DNS1
...

You can edit this file if you want to change the DNS

/etc/resolve.conf

format for this file is :

domain  yourdomain
nameserver   your-dns-server
