Dear Jay,

Thanks. That is exactly what I mean (sorry not explaining it properly). My 
network is DHCP enabled. When the lease expired, the resolver is also cleared 
out. Any ideas how I can configure a static DNS IP? 

Here is what I think may work (Please correct me if I am wrong)... Perhaps I 
should configure a static IP on this client using FreeBSD. May I know how can I 
do that, and at the same time, I would also like to disable DHCP enable 
settings. 

Thanks again.

Regards,
Linux Quest

Their DNS changes hourly?  What the heck ISP are you using that pulls 
such things?

Or do you mean to say that you're on DHCP, and when it renews the lease 
it clears out DNS info?
