If you are using the dhclient tools under Debian, you can edit your=20
dhclient.conf file and add the lines:
supersede domain-name "<your domain name>"
supersede domain-name-servers "<your domain name servers separated by a=20
space>"
I could be wrong on the exact syntax, but I seem to remember this working=
=20
quite well under RedHat 7.3.
I'm not sure what you would do for any other dhcp clients.
