Hey how are you.
I'm a Solaris admin but I have been doing a lot of RHEL administration lately. No matter what UNIX or Linux distro I have work with, the /etc/resolve.conf file is used to point a server to the DNS server. If you don't want to use a editor like vi, then use this command.
Example your DNS server's IP is 10.0.0.1
This should be what you see;
You can also use the GUI.
System --> Administration --> Network
you can edit the the interfase in this GUI.

resolv.conf - resolver configuration file
Description
The resolver configuration file, contains information that the resolver routines read the first time they are invoked by a process. The
resolver file contains ASCII text and lists the name-value pairs that provide various types of resolver information.
The file is required if your system is running BIND. This file must contain the BIND domain name for the local area network. If your sys-
tem is a BIND client, this file must also contain nameserver entries.
There are two entry formats for the file:
domain binddomain
This line specifies the default domain to append to local host names. If no domain entries are present, the domain returned by
after the first dot (.) is used. If the host name does not contain a domain, the root domain is assumed.
nameserver address
In this entry, the address is the IP address, in dot notation, of the BIND server that should be queried to resolve host name and
address information. You should have at least one name server listed. Two or more name servers reduces the possibility of inter-
rupted BIND service in the event that one of the servers is down. You can list up to (10) name servers. If more than one server is
listed, the resolver library queries you to try them in the order listed. If no name server entries are present, the default is to
use the name server on the local machine.
The algorithm used is to try a name server, and, if the query times out, to try the next, until out of name servers or the query is
resolved. The last step is to repeat trying all the name servers until a maximum number of retries has been made or the query has
been resolved.
The name value pair must appear on a single line, and the keyword or must start each line.
Examples
The following is an example of a file:

domain cities.us
nameserver 128.11.22.33
Lines beginning with a semicolon (;) are comment lines.
