The first thing to check is if /etc/resolv.conf does exist. If it doesn't, 
then you need to create it.
It should look similar to: -

nameserver isp.dns.server.addr
nameserver isp.backupdns.server.addr

If it does exist, then do an ls -al and check the permissions on the file. I 
think they should be -rw-r--r--
