Hi Christian, Would OpenBSD be interested in a daemon that gets nameserver information from pppoe0 and passes this nameserver information to resolvd(8)? Currently there is no way to do that, so a userland daemon that uses a bpf device to spy on pppoe(4) may be worthwhile to write? Is this overcomplicating things? Let me know what you think about this proposal, I've worked around it for so long but always wanted to write something like this. The old userland pppoed could probably be used for an example, no?
