configuring DNS on Solaris 10



Hi,

I am new to Solaris(migrating from Windows to Solaris).I have
installed Solaris 10 on my PC.
I have internet connection of VSNL(India) at my home.They have
provided me a router.
I have done full installation.Also all drivers necessary for
networking are installed properly.

I get dynamic IP address while connecting to internet.

I want to configure DNS. But, I don't know how to configure it.

My problem is ,I don't know what should I enter during configuration
of DNS.

For Name Service I selected DNS. On next screen it asked me domain
name.
What should be the domain name?Is it anything or my ISP's name or any
name derived from it?

On next screen it asks for Server address.Actually there is space for
three addresses.
What should I enter over there? Will my own IP address do?or my
router's IP address or some else?

On next screen DNS search list is to be provided.What is it?
What should I write over there exactly?

Please help me!

Thanking You!

Prashant Poman.
