Mandrake changes my /etc/resolv.conf

Hi,
Everytime I reboot my machine, mandrake changes the /etc/resolv.conf file so I have problems connecting to my new dialup connection (It changes it to my broadband configuration). Does anyone know how I can stop it from doing that?

Thanks

You can add the necessary lines toward the end of startup. . .
I have, at the end of /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1:

Code:

echo nameserver XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX >> /etc/resolv.conf

/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 is the shell script which sets up the networking devices. You won't find this file on MDK, but there is a similar config file somewhere under /etc.
