What I have done in the past with my resolv.conf when dhcp wanted to
periodically overwrite the settings that my VPN client had set, was to
cheat.

chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf

Of course, you won't be able to edit/remove it yourself either unless
you first run chattr -i /etc/resolv.conf

This is the lazy way that doesn't involve tracking down what is causing
the problem and convincing it to stop doing what it's doing, but it
works.
