[App_rpt-users] DNS Setup

[Bob]

I only had a public IP available, no DHCP. Just learned this...

 

Edit /etc/resolvconf.conf 

"#name_servers=" to "name_servers=8.8.8.8" or what ever DNS you'd like

 

Save and reboot. Works great.


Thanks,

Bob

I just went through this yesterday with a new DIAL installation
(http://dvswitch.org/files/AllStarLink/RAT_RC1.tar.gz).

 

As you have observed, netsetup (for Static setup mode) sets the DNS
nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf but updating that file directly is not
supported for the OS. On reboot, the resolvconf process overwrites
/etc/resolv.conf again and removes those entries.

 

And as you also found, entering dns-nameservers in /etc/network/interfaces
doesn't work with resovconf.

 

I've decided to use netsetup to set networking to DHCP and I set a static
MAC entry for the IP I want assigned in my router. This works as expected.
