So you've gone out of your way to run a daemon but prevent it from working as configured, instead of just reconfiguring it to do what you need. I have Network Manager and it is extremely simple to configure it to keep fixed DNS Servers as well as have static addresses for ethernet interfaces. I find that today, except extremely rare case, all that people that complain about network management tools interfering are people that never tried or tried once *years* ago and never checked again.
