Your email was pretty specific, but I just don't get one thing. Is it the LM8.1 client machines that you want to fix?
The /etc/resolv.conf will be overwritten by the dhcp server. On your LM8.1 server, you can specify the hosts you wish to use, via the dhcpd.conf file. So, if your problem is the client pc's, just fix the dhcpd.conf file on your server. If the problem is your ISP overwriting the /etc/resolv.conf file, then there are other things you need to look at. You mentioned a ppp conection. In this case, the resolv.conf file should only be overwritten during the ppp connection, via a temp file, and then restored when the connection is brought down. --- Brian Parish <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Ed Tharp gave me lots of assistance over on the newbie list with getting > some > network issues fixed in my setup.
