Please tell a bit about your network infrastructure. When there's a DHCP server running: Did you set it up? Is it built into a router of some kind? What are the router's DNS settings? The DHCP server is supposed to provide valid DNS servers, too. So it probably doesn't at the moment, and dhcpcd clears /etc/resolv.conf. You can prevent that with the "-R" switch to dhcpcd. I think there is even an example in /etc/conf.d/net.example that tells you how to persistently set this flag. However, I'd prefer to set up the router (i.e. its DHCP server) correctly to provide valid DNS servers. -hwh -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
