Here is /etc/conf.d/net: config_eth0=( "192.168.100.5 netmask 255.255.255.0 brd 192.168.100.255" ) routes_eth0=( "default via 192.168.100.1" ) /etc/nsswitch.conf: passwd: compat shadow: compat group: compat # passwd: db files nis # shadow: db files nis # group: db files nis hosts: files dns networks: files dns services: db files protocols: db files rpc: db files ethers: db files netmasks: files netgroup: files bootparams: files automount: files aliases: files /etc/hosts: 127.0.0.1 localhost ::1 localhost /etc/resolv.conf: nameserver 209.116.241.10 nameserver 216.99.225.31 nameserver 216.99.233.253 . . . The problem is that I installed djbdns and ran the scripts to set it up. It didn't work to cache and serve dns queries, so I gave up. But unmerging it left me with no DNS at all. I was hoping to find out what these scripts overwrote that's hijacking my DNS requests. Anyway, if anyone on the list has removed djbdns and re-configured access directly to their ISP's nameservers, I'd like to know if it was effortless, or was there something else required. -- Michael Higgins -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
