[olug] /etc/resolv.conf entries

It's probably linuxconf/netconfig (if RedHat 7.3 still uses linuxconf, I use
7.2 right now and don't remember if I disabled it or if it just didn't get
installed).  If you configure anything that linuxconf has a module for and
is enabled, then any configuration you do by hand will be blown away at
reboot.  I usually disable all of the linuxconf modules from within
linuxconf before I build the server.
