| 09:55.35 | alainr | hi |
| 09:55.36 | alainr | is there something like resolvconf (to manage resolv.conf) I can use in busybox? |
| 09:55.52 | alainr | I know about openresolv, but I would prefer a "real" c program |
| 09:55.59 | alainr | openresolv is shell script |
| 09:56.25 | RobotGuy | alainr: /etc/resolv.conf is not a difficult file to deal with. It just lists your nameservers. |
| 09:57.39 | alainr | I know that, but i have multiple applications writing to resolv.conf (udhcpc, vpnc, pppoec...) |
| 09:57.54 | alainr | and one overwrites the changes of the other... |
| 10:00.45 | RobotGuy | alainr: Why? You really should just have the settings placed there once? Why do you have many apps writting to /etc/resolv.conf? |

| 10:01.32 | alainr | udhcpc receives dns server info from dhcp server and writes them to resolv.conf |
| 10:01.32 | RobotGuy | OK, I see what is happening. However, the nameservers should not change and should not need to be updated. |
| 10:01.33 | alainr | then vpnc connects and receives other dns info through the vpn channel |
| 10:01.48 | RobotGuy | I guess I just don't get why you would want apps writing to /etc/resolv.conf at all. |
| 10:02.15 | RobotGuy | They should not change anything that they didn't put there. |
| 10:02.15 | alainr | it overwrites resolv.conf with the new settings |
| 10:02.27 | alainr | until here everything is fine (eventhough not very clean) |

| 10:03.15 | RobotGuy | That's what I am saying - they should not overwrite /etc/resolv.conf. They might update the file, but they should not be overwriting it completely with new data. |
| 10:03.27 | RobotGuy | It just seems crazy. |
| 10:04.13 | RobotGuy | The apps should maintain their own data if they need to have it, not overwrite /etc/resolv.conf |
| 10:05.30 | RobotGuy | I would not want my /etc/resolv.conf file to be overwritten by any application. it has the nameservers at my ISP plus my own local nameserver listed there. I don't want that data replaced ever. |
| 10:06.10 | alainr | thats why I thought about using resolvconf http://packages.debian.org/unstable/net/resolvconf |
| 10:06.41 | alainr | as a 1 point that writes to resolv.conf |
| 10:07.45 | RobotGuy | alainr: It would be fine as long as it does not change data that is already in the file. |
| 10:09.30 | alainr | this would mean i would need to modify every app to recognize what they have written to the file |
| 10:10.14 | alainr | and just erase this, leaving the rest |
| 10:46.36 | RobotGuy | alainr: The app should already do that. |
| 10:47.07 | RobotGuy | Too many apps behave like they are the only app to have access to data. |
| 10:47.41 | RobotGuy | By that I mean common data that all apps may need. |
| 10:49.17 | RobotGuy | Anyways, I need to get some food. Bye for now. |

| 13:50.55 | alainr | anyone knows about resolv.conf? |
| 13:51.02 | alainr | is it valid to have 2 lines with domain |
| 13:51.09 | alainr | for example in one resolv.conf: |
| 13:51.16 | alainr | domain abc.def |
| 13:51.23 | alainr | domain xyz.ddd |
| 13:51.30 | alainr | or does it always have to be: |
| 13:51.37 | alainr | domain abc.def xyz.ddd |
