I am creating the file /etc/resolv.conf . To get the proper setting I
looked into my running system's /etc/resolv.conf . pico says:

   nameserver 127.0.1.1
   search domain.actdsltmp

I do not think that number is even in my network and it isn't the loopback
address. The book says:

    The IP address may also be a router on the local network.

which is 192.168.0.1 . So what would you advise I do; should I put in what
my host system says is the nameserver or my router/modem's ip address? I'm
thinking the modem/router's IP.
