You don't have to be an accessory to your router developer's dumbass idea of how to do name resolution. Just tell your work station what you want IT to use. Do you know your ISPs name server? Try dig a www.google.com @<ip-of-isp-ns> If it works real quick, set that name server in resolv.conf and tell your local dhcp client to NOT overwrite resolv.conf -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
