It goes in /etc/resolv.conf, and it doesn't have a space.  It's like
this:

[root@MindBender]~# cat /etc/resolv.conf
lookup file bind
search cc.iastate.edu iastate.edu HeadCandy.com

nameserver      129.186.140.33
nameserver      129.186.140.200
nameserver      129.186.1.200

Do a ``man resolv.conf'' for more info.
