Is there some > other way to supersede the dhclient dns settings on Devuan? You can set name servers by hand in /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf. Would you want to prevent the DHCP daemon to set them, you could set a line like: request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, time-offset, routers, domain-name, host-name; (that is, you leave out "domain-name-servers") and then you can set your own resolvers with: append domain-name-servers ::ip:address:dns1, ::ip:address:dns2; Or you could take the DHCPD's server and prepend your own with a line like the abose with "prepend" instead of "append". I hope it's going to work with IPv6 addresses too, I never tried it with those.

[DNG] WICD & DNS & IPv6
Hi, since Gnome network manager depends on systemd, I have to use wicd on my notebook. And since my internet provider does not allow to change dns setting on their router, I only can change it on my notebook. But wicd does not accept ipv6 addresses in the dns fields. Is there some other way to supersede the dhclient dns settings on Devuan? Jochen ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
