resolv.conf getting rewritten at system startup

Hi all,

I am running FBSD 6.0-RELEASE

I use  DHCP to configure my network interface.
At startup my resolv.conf is overwritten, setting my
nameserver to the address of the router running DHCP.

I tried commenting out almost all of the rc.d/resolv
startup script but to no avail.

I read the man page for dhcp-options and then proceeded to add
option domain-name-servers a.b.c.d
This was also of no help.

I then remembered something about FBSD 6 no longer using ISC dhcp client.

I am running BIND 9.3.1 with internal and external views of my namespace 
set-up so
it is imperative that I be able to tell hosts on the internal network 
which name server
to use.

If anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate the help.

Thanks in advance,

Duane

P.S.

Is there a man page for the dhcp client FBSD 6 is using
(what is FBSD 6 using)?
