Lee,

resolv.conf

these days is only populated  on boot up after reading info from the 
following files (see below).

I currently  do not have a copy of Ubuntu installed currently.

Most Distro right now are using

ifcfg files to store information for various network connections

search domain, dns, etc etc

in Fedora it can be found in

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts.

in OpenSUSE

/etc/sysconfi/network



placing your search domain here will allow dns & search domain 
information to persist.
