I've set peer_dns="no" (and alternating with peer_dns_eth0="no") in /etc/conf.d/net but after starting /etc/init.d/net.eth0, /etc/resolv.conf gets overwriten, thus losing its contents. I was forced to create a script that is executed after the network is brought up that restores my custom /etc/resolv.conf values. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set peer_dns="no" in /etc/conf.d/net 2. /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start 3. cat /etc/resolv.conf Actual Results: /etc/resolv.conf gets overwritten each time an ethernet (at least) device is brought up. Expected Results: /etc/resolv.conf custom values should be kept unmodified after bringing up a device.

You're using baselayout-1.9.x, which does not support that setting - which has been deprecated anyway. dhcp_eth0="nodns" is now the correct syntax for baselayout-1.11.9-r1
Thank you very much. :)
You can also add dhcpcd_eth0="-R" to /etc/conf.d/net
