Eduardo,

this DHCP request are sent by kernel mode dhcp client,  which has no access
to resolv.conf to store retrived information

I'dont now if somebody have developped a possibility to retriev this 
info using
user-mode app and store it into resolv.conf...

Maybe one why to do it is to modify kernale mode dhcp client to create a 
procfs entry containig info for resolv.conf
and have /etc/resolv.com  to be symlink to procfs entry
 

Thanks
Vadim
