That's not always true. Sometimes you want the IP address from DHCP,
but you want to provide your own DNS. There are LOTS of scenarios where
this is desirable.
That's why this is such an important topic, and why it keeps coming up
over and over again.
That's why we have a wiki page which describes several different solutions,
so that each sysadmin who runs into this problem can find a suitable one.
