Life is like that.

Possibly. The ETC environment variable setting controls this. This is
defined in AUTOEXEC.BAT unless you override it somewhere else.

That's probably the correct thing to do. The RESOLV files are simple.
The first line is your domain name. Probably www.ucsd.edu in your case.
The other lines list DNS servers. Bad things can happen these IP
addresses are not valid. nslookup says:

[j:\tmp\0]nslookup -type=any www.ucsd.edu
Server: rns2.earthlink.net
Address: 207.217.77.82

Non-authoritative answer:
www.ucsd.edu canonical name = infopath.ucsd.edu

Authoritative answers can be found from:
ucsd.edu nameserver = ns0.ucsd.edu
ucsd.edu nameserver = ns1.nosc.mil
ucsd.edu nameserver = ns1.ucsd.edu
ucsd.edu nameserver = ns2.ucsd.edu
ns0.ucsd.edu internet address = 132.239.1.51

which says your primary DNS should be 132.239.1.51.

I'll look at this later unless you fix up the DNS yourself.
