Comment (by Stefan Hellermann <stefan@…>):
This doesn't work with more than one domain name.
uclibc ignores the search domain completely, see bug #13685.
When using eglibc it works with one search domain, but more than one
domain fails.
quote from resolv.conf(5):
{{{
The domain and search keywords are mutually exclusive. If more
than
one instance of these keywords is present, the last instance wins.
}}}
So there should only be one line with either search or domain.
when specifying
{{{
option dns_search 'a.lan b.lan'
}}}
resolv.conf contains:
{{{
search a.lan
search b.lan
}}}
in this case only b.lan is searched, like the man page states
when specifying
{{{
list dns_search 'a.lan'
list dns_search 'b.lan'
}}}
resolv.conf also contains:
{{{
search a.lan
search b.lan
}}}
workaround:
{{{
list dns_search 'a.lan b.lan'
}}}
which is not the way "list" is meant to work, but it works. resolv.conf:
{{{
search a.lan b.lan
}}}
