[Mailinglist] Hi.. I have a problem with resolv.conf

[Jaisen N.D.]

I am working on Debian GNU/Linux Etch, and I have a small problem. But I
don't know how to fix it.
Problem is that, the resolv.conf file is updated on every reboot and I have
to enter the name server addresses manually to it after every reboot, to get
connected to internet. I tried these commands, but could not solve it
yet.

    localhost:/etc# whoami
    root
    localhost:/etc# pwd
    /etc
    localhost:/etc# chattr +i resolv.conf
    chattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device while reading flags on
resolv.conf

I checked the resolv.conf file, and found that /etc/resolv.conf is a
symbolic link to
the file:- /etc/resolvconf/run/resolv.conf
    and
etc/resolvconf/run/ is a symbolic link to the file /dev/shm/resolvconf

Then I applied the following commands:-

    localhost:/etc# cd /dev/shm
    localhost:/dev/shm# cd resolvconf/
    localhost:/dev/shm/resolvconf# ls
    enable-updates  interface  resolv.conf
    localhost:/dev/shm/resolvconf# chattr +i resolv.conf
    chattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device while reading flags on
resolv.conf
    localhost:/dev/shm/resolvconf#

How can I make it possible? Any other idea??
