I am also. After having a break, I decided to manually edit /etc/resolv.conf and then chmod it to be unoverwrittable. But I had no chance to check this solution: after booting my Gentoo computer once again, I have found out that now /etc/resolv.conf was created *with* DNS servers IPs, and everything works fine. But it is *very* strange as I have *not* changed anything after my previous reboot. Absolutely. Have I discovered a new Windows-like fix for a Gentoo system that can be ca= lled "Just reboot it several times"?
