Hi Ted:

Actually this was a feature request by  me since I need to have multiple
search domains in the clients' resolv.conf.  One way to do this is to
add multiple search domains in the "option domain-name" entry.

We're still trying to figure out a better way to do this - if you have
some ideas, we're all ears :-)

Thanks,

Bernard
