I don't get you context here as the problem is simply trying to get
networkmanager to quit writing /etc/resolv.conf.
The context -- what has certain people confused -- is that most people who
do what you're doing run the DNS and DHCP servers on the *same machine*.
They're wondering why you are running those on *different* machines.
Now, personally I don't care. I'm just watching the drama play out.
the DHCP server is on a router
Running DNS service on a machine is done by many
If I can do this then my issue is solved.
Except you've also got some self-imposed restrictions:
1) You're using a non-vanilla Debian installation method that installs
Network Manager despite not choosing a desktop environment.
2) You refuse to remove Network Manager despite it being the apparent
source of your problems.
I would like to get this working as is
3) You refuse to install any package that you don't already have.
Points 1, 2 and 3 taken together seem to point toward some sort of
virtualization story ("I need to be able to replicate this setup
later") that's also being hidden from us, but who knows.
I would like not to install or remove any packages
4) You refuse the chattr +i solution which would solve the problem in
one simple step. (This one doesn't surprise me. A lot of people
object to it on some sort of religious ground. I don't understand
the objection, but it's so common that it's no longer a surprise.)
That is a crutch, ie If you can configure something then use chatter +i
I prefer to do this correctly
