I don't understand your issue. Are you using dhcp, you must be, and as
a result, your resolve.conf changes with input from the dhcp server.
Use static IP in /etc/network/interfaces, edit resolv.conf, you are
done.
Here is a copy of my files:
cat /etc/resolv.conf
domain damtek.org
search damtek.org
nameserver 68.87.68.162
nameserver 68.87.74.162
nameserver 192.168.200.1
cat /etc/network/interfaces
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
# address 192.168.200.15
# netmask 255.255.255.0
# network 192.168.200.0
# broadcast 192.168.200.255
# gateway 192.168.200.1
# dns-* options are implemented by the resolvconf package, if installed
dns-nameservers 192.168.200.1
dns-search damtek.org
address 192.168.200.15
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.200.1
iface eth1 inet static
address 192.168.200.16
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.200.1
My dns servers do not now change as a result. If you use dhcp (and have
to use it) then in my case the name servers are given to me by my
router/dns server which gets it from the ISP. I do not have resolveconf
package installed. Does this help?
