To add to Ken's answer... The setting is PEERDNS in the
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth? file. If PEERDNS is set to
"yes" then the resolv.conf file will be rewritten on every reboot. If
set to "no" then the resolv.conf should not change.
BTW, I have not read the OP's original post and basing my answer just on
the subject line.
