I am using ubuntu 12.04. How do I change /etc/resolv.conf file ? Every time I edit it, it automatically gets reset. If I want to retain changes in the file what needs to be done. When I browsed through internet I found some solutions one of them was:

  1. Adding the nameserver to /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head
  2. Adding the nameserver to /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base

But even after adding the nameserver to above mentioned files and restarting the services, the /etc/resolv.conf automatically gets reset.

I want to permanently retain changes in /etc/resolv.conf file.

The remarks in the file tell you that it should not be edited and what you should do to add nameservers. See the link for 1 such method. – Rinzwind Mar 20 '13 at 13:57
