If you are using dhclient, then /etc/resolv.conf is not really a configuration file. You are choosing to have your host dynamically configured by an outside agency and /etc/resolv.conf becomes a tool to implement that dynamic configuration. So, to me, the logical approach is to control the dynamic configuration process to produce the result you want, not artificially contrain the implementation mechanism available to the dynamic configuration you receive. Neither approach is perfect. .... Ken > > ?ukasz Czarniecki <l...@sanki.roteh.pl> wrote: > > > chflags uchg /etc/resolv.conf > > Thanks!
