I've noticed that /etc/resolv.conf seems to accumulate obsolete, |
2 |
useless info as my laptop moves from one network to another. It looks |
3 |
like dhcpcd adds stuff when a connection comes up, but never removes |
4 |
it when the connection goes down. |
5 |
|
6 |
There are search entries and nameserver entries from networks I |
7 |
haven't been connected to for a long time. |
8 |
|
9 |
Even when there are no network interfaces up/configured, |
10 |
/etc/resolv.conf is full of entries -- and none of them are useful or |
11 |
valid. |
12 |
|
13 |
I've tried shutting down all of the network interfaces, deleteting all |
14 |
of the leases from /var/lib/dhcpcd and then removing resolv.conf. The |
15 |
next time any interface comes up, /etc/resolv.conf is again full of |
16 |
obsolete stuff along with the valid entries for the interface that has |
17 |
just come up. |

How do you get rid of old entries that show up in resolv.conf? |
