Thanks, I had missed the part about those two being exclusive.
However, I still don't understand how adding the 'search
ourdomain.net' is 'working as designed' as there are already one
extra keyword, and adding /another/ extra mutually exclusive keyword
won't exactly help...

Anyway, I changed our cf.resolv to just have the 'search' part
included. Then cfengine decided to add 'domain ourdomain.net' at the
end of /etc/resolv.conf, something I'd think is /not/ working as
designed, since they're supposed to be mutually exclusive...

So, to rephrase the question, how do I tell cfengine that I want to be
able to search two domains when I lookup hostnames?
