Hello all, I am setting up a way to have my laptop automatically get a correct ip address.
When I am at my office, I have a fixed ip; at home (on a private network) I use dhcp. I know I can use quickswitch for that but I want something really automatic, so after some search I ended up with this in my /etc/conf.d/net: iface_eth0="dhcp" ifconfig_eth0=( "dhcp" "194.199.136.151" ) dhcpcd_eth0="-t 30" ifconfig_fallback_eth0=( "194.199.136.151 netmask 255.255.255.0 " ) ipaddr_fallback_eth0=( "194.199.136.151 gw 194.199.136.250" ) This works great, but as dhcp overwrites /etc/resolv.conf, when I go back to my fixed ip my dns servers are not the ones I need (still the ones I use at home). My dns names for office are set in /etc/resolv.conf.fac. Is there a way to have the machine know which dns servers to use?
