I am attempting to add a couple DNS IP's to /etc/resolv.conf in this format;
nameserver 24.31.3.8 nameserver 24.31.3.9 however, everytime I do this the file is overwritten immediatly by "something" else. I have even tried to add the IP's directly into /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts (various files with DNS entries in them) with no luck. The original contents of /etc/resolv.conf are; nameserver 192.168.0.118 which is the gateway IP of our Internet server on our home LAN. DNS is enabled thru linuxconf and yes I even tried adding the new IP's there and they are removed immediatly also by some other process. I have checked and I do not have pump installed so that isn't the culprit. I also do not have dhclient installed (those were the two suggestions I found on the web which may be interferring with /etc/resolv.conf) I am using Mandrake 8.2 on a Dell Optiplex P500 w/256 RAM with a 3com nic. Any other info I should provide? Thanks in advance for any help and or advise. Steve
