\_ Hi,
\_ 
\_ I have a DHCP connection to my ISP. My home LAN has been configured into my
\_ local DNS.  Each time I reboot the system, /etc/resolv.conf is overwritten
\_ with the ISP's information only.  How can I avoid the /etc/resolv.conf being
\_ overwritten each time the system is rebooted?

Depending on the dhcp client you're using, there's flags to control
corruption/updating of resolv.conf.  

Also man chattr; seek the i flag.

But the client daemon option is really the way to go.
