I don't have any dns_domain_lo entry in my /etc/conf.d/net file.

chattr [*options*] *mode* *files*
Modify file attributes. Specific to Linux Second and Third Extended
Filesystem (ext2 and ext3). Behaves similarly to symbolic *chmod*, using *+*,
*-*, and *=*. *mode* is in the form *opcode attribute*. See also *lsattr*
