I tried the advanced setup and it was no luck. I'm trying your dhclient.conf method, however it isn't working. I read the manpage, and I can't figure out why. This is what I have in dhclient.conf: interface "vr0" { prepend domain-name-servers 205.171.2.65; prepend domain-name-servers 205.171.3.65; } Any clue why this might not work? Thanks for the help! /Brian
