[CUWiN-Dev] adding nameservers to node config

[tom]

I was at Mike Lehman's house today and I think I've refined his setup to the 
point of usability. The trick is, his router doesn't give out DNS servers 
along with a DHCP lease. Or if it does, it gives out the incorrect ones. 
Mike's computer has a pair of DNS servers that it uses, and when I used 
these I could connect to the Internet from my laptop through his node. I did 
this by specifying the DNS servers on my own computer, though, not on the 
node.

So the question becomes how to permanently add these nameservers to the 
node. I believe they can just be added to /etc/resolv.conf, but I don't know 
if that file persists after reboot. And a software upgrade would certainly 
wipe them, but I think that's unavoidable and not necessarily too 
problematic (we will just need to be careful about reinstating these servers 
after an upgrade).

My knowledge of NetBSD networking is cursory at best, so I'm guessing this 
is a simple operation that I just don't know how to do. Advice?
