Re: [gentoo-user] Don't get a /etc/resolv.conf on dhcpcd ethx - Get /etc/resolv.conf-eth2.sv instead which doesn't work unless copy to /etc/resolv.conf

2007-05-05 Thread Richard Watson
 you _are_ using dhcpcd, right?

I decided to emerge dhcpcd again to see what I get. It reports an error
at the end of the compilation.

* QA Notice: USE Flag 'kernel_linux' not in IUSE for
net-misc/dhcpcd-2.0.5-r1
* 
* dhcpcd requires kernel support for Packet Socket (CONFIG_PACKET).

However it completes OK and seems to work OK other than having to
manually create the correct DNS in /etc/resolv.conf.

Anyone any ideas. Thanks, Richard

  A bit heavy-handed...
ln -f /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf-eth2.sv

  Next time the system tries overwriting /etc/resolv.conf-eth2.sv, it
will also overwrite /etc/resolv.conf

 Hi - I've been having problems with DNS. When I start my wireless

 a /etc/resolv.conf file generated. Instead I get one

 www.gentoo.org).
 
 To get it running I copy the contents of resolv.conf-eth2.sv

 Anybody tell me how to fix this?

`man dhcpcd`
   -R Prevents dhcpcd  from  replacing  existing
etcDir/resolv.conf file.

I'm not sure whether that will help at all.  It may preserve the data
in resolv.conf.  Why this data isn't being correctly updated, I can't
say.  

you _are_ using dhcpcd, right?
