First, you may list multiple nameservers in your resolv.conf so that should one of them fail, the others will still respond to queries. Second, the resolver timeout and attempts may be set to a lower value (see resolver(5) for details) if your network can suffer from all its nameservers being unavailable. Please also note that some ways of ssh authentication may rely on a name service being available. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=62139
