I too run a Linux server as my gateway to Adelphia's cable modem service
at home.  The way it is set up there, DHCPC automagically replaces the
resolv.conf file with one that includes the servers taken from the DHCP
server.  If your dhcpc does not do that for some reason, here is a copy
of my resolv.conf, it should work for you as well.

Just put that in /etc/resolv.conf and you should be good to go.  If this
is already there, then... well... something's up. =)
