  There are option to set  'dns_servers_eth0' , 'dns_domain_eth0',

Ah! I hadn't spotted that. Thanks for the info. This is a much neater way to 
do it - with the tools intended!

I've tried two things at different times. One is to omit dns_domain_lo 
from /etc/conf.d/net, and the other is to chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf. 
Both appear to work.

I do the first of those because I always have (I forget when this variable 
was introduced, but it wasn't long ago), and the second because I don't 
want any Gentoo scripts messing up my network configuration.

I don't have any dns_domain_lo entry in my /etc/conf.d/net file.
chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf doesn't seems to work for me.
I guess it is specific to filesystem ext2/3 while i am on  reiserfs.
