Hoi Arnold, Be aware that in most configurations /etc/resolv.conf is (re)created at boot time on configuration of the nic. If the nic is configured through dhcp, check there for the weird ip address! If it is configured otherwise, check there. It might be that the stub file is not overwritten at boot.
