RE: Network gurus

On my Linux boxes (Linux Mint), there is /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d dir which has 3 files: base, head, tail. Put ‘nameserver 8.8.8.8’ into base (or tail) and it should always get added to resolv.conf every reboot. (You might look at all 3 files, my favourite trick for this is: more /etc/r

Re: Network gurus

I looked into the file (as suggested) and it says not to edit manually. On Tue, Nov 7, 2017 at 11:00 AM, Carruth, Rusty wrote: > On my Linux boxes (Linux Mint), there is /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d dir > which has 3 files: base, head, tail. > > > > Put ‘nameserver 8.8.8.8’ into base (or tail)

You probably just need to use your desktop environment (gnome, etc) and go into network settings and change it there to a static DNS server. On Tue, Nov 7, 2017 at 2:47 PM, Michael wrote: > :: > /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base > :: > :: > /etc/resolvconf/re

is it better to have more than one? What other should I tell it? On Tue, Nov 7, 2017 at 4:54 PM, Brien Dieterle wrote: > You probably just need to use your desktop environment (gnome, etc) and go > into network settings and change it there to a static DNS server. > > On Tue, Nov 7, 2017 at 2:47

RE: Network gurus

Always better to have redundancy. Doesn’t your ISP (or whatever they call the people you pay money to for your internet) ‘give’ you a list of name servers? Rusty Carruth | Customer Support | rusty.carr...@smarth.com | http://www.smarth.com

Re: Network gurus

Thanks. Got it taken care of now! Why do you think it would suddenly not accept DHCP? I mean, my laptop still works and it is the same OS. On Tue, Nov 7, 2017 at 4:59 PM, Brien Dieterle wrote: > 2 is good. 8.8.8.8. And 8.8.4.4 > > Those are Google servers > > On Nov 7, 2017 2:58 PM, "Michael"

RE: Network gurus

Well, the ones in resolv.conf.d are what get copied to resolv.conf during startup. To prove that, change resolv.conf to say one thing, and change the base (or head, or tail, whichever it is that has the ‘do not edit’ message) to say something else, and reboot. The changes you made to base shou

So how do I do this? Edit /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/tail by hand and put 'nameserver 8.8.8.8' on the last line? On Tue, Nov 7, 2017 at 11:00 AM, Carruth, Rusty wrote: > Put ‘nameserver 8.8.8.8’ into base (or tail) and it should always get > added to resolv.conf every reboot. (You might loo

That did it! And for the redundency I would put 'nameserver 8.8.4.4' on a new line? On Tue, Nov 7, 2017 at 5:42 PM, Carruth, Rusty wrote: > I thought that’s what you’d done already. Yes, that’s what I’d do. (Did > myself) > > > > > > Rusty Carruth | Customer Support | *rusty.carr...@smarth.com
