   When I travel and use a hotel or coffee shop connection /etc/resolv.conf
is re-written to their specs ... automaticlaly. I keep a backup copy of the
default file, /etc/resolv.conf.office, and just copy that to
/etc/resolv.conf when I return. You can put that in /etc/rc.d/rc.local, or
write a shell script that does the copy and run it manually as desired.
