Except the route & the gateway are completely different things. They |
| 20 |
_might_ happen to share an IP. They might not. |

The OP asked how one specifies nameservers in "/etc/conf.d/net". |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
dns_servers=( "208.67.222.222" "208.67.220.220" ) |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
might work, but it is properly and *clearly* discussed in "/etc/conf.d/ |
| 27 |
net.example". |

I am unable to reply to David's most recent post because he's made |
| 30 |
such an unslightly mess of quoting. However it seems to me that |
| 31 |
bringing routes into your reply has only confused matters. |
