Have ip-up call a setuid program to specifically edit resolv.conf or
named.conf, if they exist. it could also have options for --no-named
--no-resolv. Is ip-up called as root? then the editing program could have
r-x------ root, root
Just an Idea. I'd have a go at it.. Anyone object? I'll have a go at the
new pppd too.
