Yeah, you need the IP addresses. I'm not sure if the current ppp software can glean the dns address from the peer. Do you know what the names for the servers are? If you can dual boot into Win95 then connect in Win95 and run 'winipcfg'. This window will show you the DNS addresses. You can just jot them down and then enter them into your /etc/resolv.conf.
