To be clear, the RDNSS/DNSSL support that was committed to head was very heavily modified from that which I proposed and which is on my web site. In particular, the resolvconf(8) tool that I offered was not used at all; the version in head is the openresolv tool by Roy Marples. Doug's response is in regard to the resolvconf version in head. FWIW, the resolvconf version from my site will use the most recent nameservers received by from either dhclient-script or rtadvd but you can also add "static" entries using standard resolv.conf syntax in the /var/db/resolv.db file; see the man page with that version. I will update my RDNSS/DNSSL web page now to add a warning that my patches have been superseded and that folk should use the committed versions where possible. -jr --Sig_/tUxfInpl02g50qhPN=E=1j4 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAk47xlsACgkQls33urr0k4keggCbBUnLoI+7VPLwFlKhqigBXYLq x44AniPXNDxibndiHW2NxNwgygJwbkPe =1AtI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/tUxfInpl02g50qhPN=E=1j4--
