The /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/0000usepeerdns script checks for the $USEPEERDNS
environment variable before "messing" with /etc/resolv.conf.

I think that the /etc/ppp/ip-down.d/0000usepeerdns script should also
check $USEPEERDNS before "unmessing" /etc/resolv.conf.  What is
happening is that I have a ppp connection that does not use peer-dns.
When that ppp interface goes down, the /etc/resolv.conf file gets
replaced with a previous version of /etc/ppp/resolv.conf that does not
apply.  From that moment on, I can no longer resolve names.

I hope I explained my problem well enough.

Thanks,

Marc
