I'd looked at this before (a few months back), and deemed it insufficient
for the job.  However, upon your re-suggestion, I can't see why it /won't/
work.  It should also be able to figure out which wired LAN the machine is
connected to, and assign the appropriate DNS servers.  So this /may/
actually address my problem.  (Goodness knows why I originally dismissed
it.)

However, this ignores my original question: why is there no 'ignore'
directive in dhclient.conf?  It seems like a potentially incredibly useful
thing, and I run across posts from people who could greatly benefit from
this every couple of months.
