The problem is not with the DHCP client, but with "resolv.con". At the
moment it only allows 3 nameserver entries, which are honoured by the
DHCP client.

The statement is "prepend" i.e. add before. Each time the s/w
encounters the statement, it adds the entry before the others, hence
the reverse order.

Also if you want the entries to appear in the order which you enter
them, then enter them in a single statement as below:

prepend domain-name-servers 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220,
218.248.240.208;
