[Voyage-linux] Setting Static Name Service

[Robert Rawlins - Think Blue]

Hey Rob,

Thanks for that suggestion, I should have probably mentioned I'm running 0.6.2 which I believe isn't using that DHCP client anymore, it's now using pump I beleive?

Iether way, when looking on my box I can't find /etc/dhclient.conf nor can I find an /etc/pump.conf file which seems a little odd.

Any ideas?

Rob

Hi Rob,

I just happened to be working on this today. You need to
change /etc/dhclient.conf and add:

prepend domain-name-servers 208.67.222.222,208.67.220.220;
#request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, time-offset, routers,
#	domain-name, domain-name-servers, host-name;
request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, time-offset, routers;


This works for me.

Rob
