resolv.conf tells DNS where to look. That's not openrc/systemd specific. |

There's another file - can't remember its name - that tells your |

resolver what to try in what order - the hosts file, dns, what dhcp told |
15 |
you, etc etc, so your resolver might not be using dns the way you think. |

I can't get that to work, either. I want my hosts file to take priority, |

And then, of course, to really screw you over your ISP might be |
