It's not the 'right suse' way of doing it, but you should be able to add your 
DNS servers to /etc/resolv.conf. The gateway can be added with something 
like:

route add default gw 192.168.0.1

You would probably be better off downloading one of the opensuse cd images, 
booting off of it, and initiating a repair.

You can install _all_ of opensuse off the net, you just have to download a 
~70Mb mini-install iso. Though I don't see one available for 10. 10 is like 2 
years old now anyway. You might think of just backing up your data and 
installing a fresh suse.

http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-10.1/iso/SUSE-Linux-10.1-GM-i386-mini.iso 
(you really don't want 10.1 though it was buggy)
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.2/iso/cd/openSUSE-10.2-GM-i386-mini.iso
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/10.3/iso/cd/openSUSE-10.3-GM-i386-mini.iso
