I'll answer this on-list since we're already this far in and people might be curious, but if you have more questions, we can take it off the list. I just added a file in /etc/dhcp/dhclient-enter-hooks.d, which I named no-resolv-conf, with contents #!/bin/sh make_resolv_conf() { : } I got this from http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/dhclient-etcresolvconf-hooks/, #2. hope this helps, Matt
