/etc/resolv.conf replaced!

During the past two days I've had power flickers and outages from snow. I
have not yet been able to attach a new system to a UPS (too many things to
move), and it's lost power a few times. When it reboots, it cannot
communicate with the network. I checked, and /etc/resolv.conf is no longer
there. It has been replaced by a link to /etc/resolvconf/run/resolv.conf,
and /etc/resolvconf/run is linked to /dev/shm/resolvconf. There is no
corresponding file in /dev/shm/resolvconf to work with.

I've found references to the other files on Google, but nothing clear telling
what is going on. There are references that make me think some program
*thinks* it is supposed to do this (so I doubt it's a virus), but I need to
find out what is going on so I can either stop it or make sure it does it
right.

So how can I stop this from happening at reboot? What is doing it? Is it a
boot thing, or a re-configure thing?

Any help is appreciated.

Hal
