Line 1: Line 1:
The default setup of Ubuntu does not make it easy to use static DNS servers while using DHCP. To get this working you need to edit {{{/etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf}}}

Find the lines
{{{
#prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;
request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, time-offset, routers,
        domain-name, domain-name-servers, host-name,
        netbios-name-servers, netbios-scope;
}}}

And change them to
{{{
prepend domain-name-servers 1.2.3.4, 1.2.3.5;
request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, time-offset, routers,
        domain-name, host-name,
        netbios-name-servers, netbios-scope;
}}}

Replace 1.2.3.4 and 1.2.3.5 with the addresses of your DNS servers.

Run
{{{
sudo invoke-rc.d networking restart}}}
