Re: Re: resolv.conf file

[Richard Black]

The following change in /etc/dhclient-script will strip the \000 from 
the domain line in resolv.conf

make_resolv_conf() {
#  echo search $new_domain_name >/etc/resolv.conf
 echo search $new_domain_name | sed -e 's/\\000$//' >/etc/resolv.conf
Sincerely,

Where're these number 000 come from and how do to protect it
from doing it again ???
You're probably on a network that has a Windows machine running as the
DHCP server. If that's the case I know that pump (apt-get install pump)
will handle the information correctly and strip the \000 from the end.
dhclient may have some way of getting around it, but I just use pump if
I'm in a Windows environment.
