OK, I answered my own question ... the overwriting of resolv.conf is caused by DHCP. I just changed all IP's to static, so that is gone. I am unable to get my system to work with anything other than 192.168.1.1 in resolv.conf though. The only options in the dlink router are: - don't do DNS relay - use auto-discover DNS - use user DNS and in any of those cases, doing DNS directly from the linux box doesn't work. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
