if i were use, i'd exchange dhclient with dhcpcd (dhcp client daemon)
which works much better for me. You have to set the /etc/resolv.conf
yourself then, as far as i know, at least i do it that way. (i've
written a small script which linkes the /etc/resolv.something to
/etc/resolv.conf depending on what connection i give on the command line
cause i have several networks to connect on )
Hope that helps
