#5634: [net_server] after r35941 all entries in resolv.conf apears twice

Comment(by vegardw):
The DHCP client writes to resolv.conf both when receiving DCHP_OFFER and
DHCP_ACK from the server, that's why everything is listed twice.
The way I read RFC2131 (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2131#section-3.1)
it seems we should only write resolv.conf when receiving DHCP_ACK from the
server, not when receiving DHCP_OFFER. It's DHCP_ACK that contains the
final configuration from the server.
According to the RFC you can receive DHCP_OFFER from several servers, but
the settings doesn't take effects until you have sent a DHCP_REQUEST to
your server of choice and received DHCP_ACK from the server.
