That wouldn't actually work, since geek would be resolved by looking
in DHCP or by concatenating with whatever you've got set up as your
domain or search in resolv.conf. That's why I don't advocate your
additions of the two options in your resolv.conf creator script. It
may lead to unexpected results, like geek -> geek.opennic.glue
