if you use pump for a dhcp client, there are a couple of ways to tell it
not to update the DNS resolver configuration (add '-d' in the init
script, or even better put 'device eth0 { nodns }' in pump.conf)

if you don't use pump, you can either look for a similar feature in your
dhcp client or simply 'apt-get install pump' (it will replace your
current client)

good luck,
