A dhcp server may well update /etc/resolv.conf (or rather, your dhcp client
can do that based on what the server tells it). How long do you get on the
DHCP lease? It shouldn't be too hard to tell if that's what's happening, as
syslog will note when you acquire a new lease. Where is 10.0.1.1, anyway?
It's a private IP address, so I'm guessing it's either your machine or your
router. So either fix your DHCP client config, or your router config so that
it sends the correct addresses.
