For what it's worth, back when I had DHCP on my main system at home (I've now got statics), I would set PARAM_IGNORE_LIST in /etc/default/dhcpagent to 6,15 (DNSserv,DNSdmain), and then configure /etc/resolv.conf manually. If you don't want junk from your ISP at all, this seems like the most supportable way to go. You can then run a caching /usr/sbin/named, point the resolver to 127.0.0.1, and you're in good shape. If you want a combination of the ISP's data and your own (which is how I interpreted the request the first time I read it), then you have to resort to the sort of script hackery I suggested. But a complete override is simple. -- James Carlson 42.703N 71.076W <carls...@workingcode.com> _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list networking-discuss@opensolaris.org
