Does Ubuntu use the PEERDNS= setting
in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-* ? If so, you can set that to
"no", and indicate DNS settings:
PEERDNS=no
DNS1=server1.opendns.org # this is NOT the real hostname
DNS2=server2.opendns.org # neither is this
DNS3=server3.opendns.org # there are 3 possible in most glibc
HTH!
