Openresolv is a resolvconf implementation, i.e. a resolv.conf management framework.
Tip: An alternative implementation is systemd-resolvconf, but it can only be used with systemd-resolved.
Contents
Installation
Install the openresolv package.
Usage
Openresolv provides resolvconf(8) and is configured in /etc/resolvconf.conf. See resolvconf.conf(5) for supported options.
Running resolvconf -u will generate /etc/resolv.conf.
Users
Stand-alone DHCP clients:
- dhcpcd has a hook which uses resolvconf if it is installed.
- netctl (used by default)
- NetworkManager#Use openresolv
VPN clients:
Subscribers
Openresolv can be configured to pass name servers and search domains to DNS resolvers. The supported resolvers are:
See the official documentation for instructions.
Tips and tricks
Defining multiple values for options
The man page does not mention it, but to define multiple values, for options that support it (e.g. name_servers, resolv_conf_options etc.) in /etc/resolvconf.conf, you need to write them space separated inside quotes. E.g.:
/etc/resolvconf.conf
resolv_conf_options="edns0 single-request" name_servers="192.168.35.1 fd7b:d0bd:7a6e::1"
