Perhaps, `supersede domain-name "private.network"' will work for me --
we'll see. The downer is, that with several DCD's to maintain,
/etc/dhclient.conf must be hard-coded to accommodate this change ;<
The real puzzler is that, after reboot, the system is *correct* -- only
sometime later, something changes and the system is no longer correct!
In fact, since the transition from @home to attbi.com, I had *no*
problems until this last week. I am not yet sure that this is the
cause, that only at lease expiry and re-negotiation does dhclient
overwrite /etc/resolv.conf -- who knew?
Thank you, for these pointers! Even though this overwriting doesn't
make any sense to me, that it is known to others and a workaround is
available is encouraging . . .

Our capacity for understanding is inversely proportional to how much we
think we know. The more I know, the more I know I don't know . . .
