Permanently changing nameserver

[Bruce Dawson]

This is being set by dhclient when it gets the DHCP info.

I believe you can "fix" this by removing the 'domain-name-servers' from 
the 'request' stanza in /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf. You probably want to do 
this ONLY on the machines that you don't want to get the DNS servers 
from DHCP.
