Because I use my laptop in various places I have a series of resolv.conf files (resolv.conf.xx1, resolv.conf.xx2, etc) When I use a different network I just cp /etc/resolv.conf.xx1 /etc/resolv.conf Now I'm having to do this every morning after boot even though I'm on the same network. Why does it keep reverting to this old file? How do I stop it? I've looked in the directory /etc/ but I cant see any file like resolv.conf.old or resolv.conf.tmp Where is it getting this empty file from? -- %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Dr. Matthew R.
