check 'man dhcpcd' to check the arguments to pass to it |
| 2 |
(via /etc/conf.d/net) to prevent it overwriting local config files |

like /etc/resolv.conf. |

Are you using a local bind server? recent updates to localhost |
| 6 |
processing in a recent gentoo update did the same for me with clients on |
| 7 |
other machines (principly firefox, but sometimes other apps). |
| 8 |
eventually I overwrote the gentoo supplied localhost and 127.zone config |
| 9 |
files with my own and now its all "sweet". I dont know why browsers |
| 10 |
seem to ignore /etc/hosts, but firefox, mozilla and I think IE all do. |

| 12 |
My /etc/nsswitch setting is "files DNS" which should make apps |
| 13 |
check /etc/hosts first. |
