Title:
  resolv.conf is cleared at system reset

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I updated several computers from Ubuntu 11.04 to 11.10. In all of
  these computers, /etc/resolv.conf was manually maintained. All of
  these computers are having static IPs.

  After the update was finished and computer(s) had rebooted,
  resolv.conf had been cleared and had only line telling that the file
  is generated by Networkmanager.

  The error is that even if I now edit the resolv.conf to contain proper
  nameserver information, it is wiped clear after system reset.

  Please correct the error or at least provide very clear instructions,
  how nameserver information can be maintained from command line.
