Which nameservers am I using?

I'd be curious to know the answer, too. nslookup or dig don't seem to
tell me the answer.

I know that /etc/resolv.conf is overwritten by dhcp if you're not
using a fixed ip address. In my case it points a destination and ip
address on my router.

The system I'm running from (ubuntu) has no dns information in
/etc/network/interfaces.

Good luck,
