I don't that is true. There is a copy of resolv.conf as well as other
network related files in a directory in the /etc/sysconfig directory
true is a directory called defaults. As soon as I put my corrections
to resolv.conf in the file there I had no more troubles with the
/etc/resolv.conf changing after a reboot.

=======================================================================
The language provides a programmer with a set of conceptual tools; if these are
inadequate for the task, they will simply be ignored.  For example, seriously
restricting the concept of a pointer simply forces the programmer to use a
vector plus integer arithmetic to implement structures, pointer, etc.  Good
design and the absence of errors cannot be guaranteed by mere language
features.
