Right, but on recent Debians one should not edit that file directly.
Rather, the info should be added to /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf in this
form:
prepend domain-name-servers 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4;
prepend domain-name-servers 2001:4860:4860::8888, 2001:4860:4860::8844;

Then the Debian magic works to put the right info in /etc/resolv.conf.
I checked, it is there.
