You will need to place the ifconfig and route commands with your parameters in a start-up script to be executed automatically on boot up. The way the start-up scripts are organized differs slightly from distribution to distribution, but you can usually find them either to /etc/init.d or to /etc/rc.d. On most distributions there is a specific networking script which provides some additional functionality, such as starting/stopping/restarting the networking interfaces and default routes and can be modified via a menu-like interface (I don't know about mandrake but try running "setup"). In any case, the solution can be as simple as throwing your commands in /etc/rc.d/rc.local :)

echo "nameserver <your NS IP>" >> /etc/resolv.conf


or manually edit the resolv.conf file in the /etc directory..
I think you can 'man resolv.conf' for more info.
