Network Manager wipes out resolv.conf

If reconnecting to the network (or dhcp restart) wipes out your DNS settings from resolv.conf then, here is a way to retain your DNS server entries in resolv.conf


sudo vim /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/Auto\ eth0


# below [ipv4]
dns=x.x.x.x;y.y.y.y;...;


Add the DNS server entries below ipv4 block. The Auto eth0 interface can vary based on your local network settings.
