Re: /etc/resolv.conf keeps getting overwritten

[Jeffrey Taylor <jeff.taylor@ieee.org>]

Your DHCP client is probably overwriting /etc/resolv.conf.  Do a "man
dhclient.conf" for details how to configure.  Possibly adding the
following line to /etc/dhclient.conf will do it.

append domain-name "domain1.com domain2.com";
