I have a clue about what is clobbering my resolv.conf. I find that if I run the /etc/init.d/networking restart it reconfigures my network and something in there resets my resolv.conf to search networkgroups nameservers 192.168.2.1 The other clue might be that I have 2 network cards eth0 and eth1 I set them up in /etc/network/interfaces I need to find the simple instructions I used to set this up. I don't think they told me to touch any other files. Maybe if I give all of you these clues, those with more experience than I have will think of the solution. I looked at the networking script, but it is like Greek to me. There is nothing obvious in there. Rejean Proulx Visit my family at http://interfree.ca MSN is: rejp at rogers.com Ham License VA3REJ
