resolv.conf getting overwritten

[balajig81]

I use PPPOEConf for configuring my internet connection. Once my internet connection is configured, the resolv.conf gets updated with proper DNS values but once i reboot my system the resolv.conf gets overwritten with 192.168.1.1 and i dont want my resolv.conf from being modified. I need the values which i configured using pppoeconf to be preserved even after the system is rebooted. How do i stop this resolv.conf from being overwritten ?.

Due to this problem everytime i am made to run pppoeconf after every reboot and configure my internet connection again.

Thanks
Regards,
Balaji

Possible work-around, remove write permissions:

sudo chmod a-w /etc/resolv.conf

The resolv.conf file will be overwritten by dhclient.conf. Make the changes you want in the latter file and it will be preserved over reboots

I changed the following two lines in the file dhclient.conf

supersede domain-name "mydomain.com"
prepend domain-name-server xxx.xxx.xxx.1, xxx.xxx.xxx.2
