Well, he can just cat /etc/resolv.conf and see if that is the situation
or not.
One dirty hack tip I have on that, if you decide you will be managing
/etc/resolv.conf by hand and everything else can just butt out, edit it
how you like and then
chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf
will make everything else bounce off when it tries to mess it up for
you. use chattr -i ... to be able to edit it again.
