After using Apple's Airport software update 1.2 and (in lieu of that, and on 
an Oronico RG-1000 wireless gateway), I'm tired of the wireless gateway's 
insistence on assigning me (along with DHCP client addresses) a DNS server 
number or 10.0.1.1)

10.0.1.1 is the address of the gateway and, under FreeBSD, it can't resolve 
itself out of a paper bag, though under Win 2k, it seems to work fine.

My own personal workaround for this noissome behavior has been to comment out 
"make resolv.conf" from the /sbin/dhclient-script, fill out the 
/etc/resolve.config file as I was expecting it, and rebooting.  (Rebooting 
only necessary to make "make resolv.conf" inactive)

Is there a workaround (or a fix for this kludge) or am I missing something 
obvious?

TIA
