= Resolv.Conf = The '''resolver configuration file''' (or '''`resolv.conf(5)`'''), typically found at `/etc/resolv.conf`, configures the [[Linux/DNS#Resolver|DNS resovler]]. <> ---- == Example == {{{ nameserver 8.8.8.8 search lan }}} ---- == Syntax == The resolver configuration file primariliy consists of two directives: '''`nameserver`''' and '''`search`''' (as in 'search domain'). Up to three `nameserver` directives can be used. These servers are queried for DNS lookups. The `search` directive sets '''search domains'''. As an example, when querying for `myhost`, `resolver(5)` will append each search domain to that name and query for those as well. ---- == See also == [[https://man.archlinux.org/man/resolv.conf.5|resolv.conf(5)]] ---- CategoryRicottone
