 +
 +
 +NAME
 +       resolv.conf - resolver configuration file
 +
 +SYNOPSIS
 +       /etc/resolv.conf
 +
 +DESCRIPTION
 +       The  ________ is a set of routines in the C library that provide access
 +       to the Internet Domain Name System (DNS).  The  resolver  configuration
 +       file  contains  information  that  is read by the resolver routines the
 +       first time they are invoked by a process.  The file is designed  to  be
 +       human readable and contains a list of keywords with values that provide
 +       various types of resolver information.
 +
 +       If this file doesn't exist the only name server to be queried  will  be
 +       on  the local machine; the domain name is determined from the host name
 +       and the domain search path is constructed from the domain name.
 +
 +       The different configuration options are:
 +
 +       nameserver Name server IP address
 +              Internet address (in dot notation) of a  name  server  that  the
 +              resolver   should   query.    Up  to  MAXNS  (currently  3,  see
 +              __________) name servers may be listed,  one  per  keyword.   If
 +              there are multiple servers, the resolver library queries them in
 +              the order listed.  If no nameserver  entries  are  present,  the
 +              default  is  to  use the name server on the local machine.  (The
 +              algorithm used is to try a name server, and if the  query  times
 +              out, try the next, until out of name servers, then repeat trying
 +              all the name servers until  a  maximum  number  of  retries  are
 +              made.)
 +
 +       domain Local domain name.
 +              Most  queries  for  names within this domain can use short names
 +              relative to the local domain.  If no domain  entry  is  present,
 +              the  domain  is  determined from the local host name returned by
 +              gethostname(3); the domain part is taken to be everything  after
 +              the  first  '.'  Finally,  if the host name does not contain a
 +              domain part, the root domain is assumed.
 +
 +       search Search list for host-name lookup.
 +              The search list is normally determined  from  the  local  domain
 +              name;  by default, it contains only the local domain name.  This
 +              may be changed by listing the desired domain search path follow-
 +              ing the ______ keyword with spaces or tabs separating the names.
 +              Resolver queries having fewer than _____ dots (default is 1)  in
 +              them  will  be attempted using each component of the search path
 +              in turn until a match is found.  For environments with  multiple
 +              subdomains  please  read  options ndots:_ below to avoid man-in-
 +              the-middle attacks and unnecessary  traffic  for  the  root-dns-
 +              servers.  Note that this process may be slow and will generate a
 +              lot of network traffic if the servers for the listed domains are
 +              not local, and that queries will time out if no server is avail-
 +              able for one of the domains.
 +
 +              The search list is currently limited to six domains with a total
 +              of 256 characters.
 +
 +       sortlist
 +              Sortlist  allows  addresses  returned  by gethostbyname(3) to be
 +              sorted.  A sortlist is specified by IP  address  netmask  pairs.
 +              The  netmask  is optional and defaults to the natural netmask of
 +              the net.  The IP address and optional network  pairs  are  sepa-
 +              rated by slashes.  Up to 10 pairs may be specified.  E.g.,
 +                  sortlist 130.155.160.0/255.255.240.0 130.155.0.0
 +
 +       options
 +              Options  allows  certain internal resolver variables to be modi-
 +              fied.  The syntax is
 +
 +                     options ______ ___
 +
 +              where ______ is one of the following:
 +
 +              debug  sets RES_DEBUG in ____________.
 +
 +              ndots:_
 +                     sets a threshold for the number of dots which must appear
 +                     in  a name given to res_query(3) (see resolver(3)) before
 +                     an _______ ________ _____ will be made.  The default  for
 +                     _ is 1, meaning that if there are any dots in a name, the
 +                     name will be tried first as an absolute name  before  any
 +                     ______ ____ elements are appended to it.
 +
 +              timeout:_
 +                     sets  the  amount  of  time  the resolver will wait for a
 +                     response from a remote name server  before  retrying  the
 +                     query  via a different name server.  Measured in seconds,
 +                     the default is RES_TIMEOUT (currently 5, see __________).
 +
 +              attempts:_
 +                     sets  the  number of times the resolver will send a query
 +                     to its name servers before giving  up  and  returning  an
 +                     error   to  the  calling  application.   The  default  is
 +                     RES_DFLRETRY (currently 2, see __________).
 +
 +              rotate sets RES_ROTATE in ____________, which causes round robin
 +                     selection  of  nameservers from among those listed.  This
 +                     has the effect of spreading  the  query  load  among  all
 +                     listed  servers,  rather  than having all clients try the
 +                     first listed server first every time.
 +
 +              no-check-names
 +                     sets RES_NOCHECKNAME in ____________, which disables  the
 +                     modern  BIND  checking  of  incoming  host names and mail
 +                     names for invalid characters such as underscore (_), non-
 +                     ASCII, or control characters.
 +
 +              inet6  sets  RES_USE_INET6 in ____________.  This has the effect
 +                     of trying a AAAA query before an A query inside the geth-
 +                     ostbyname(3)  function,  and of mapping IPv4 responses in
 +                     IPv6 "tunneled form" if no AAAA records are found but  an
 +                     A record set exists.
 +
 +                     Some programs behave strangely when this option is turned
 +                     on.
 +
 +       The ______ and ______ keywords are mutually exclusive.   If  more  than
 +       one instance of these keywords is present, the last instance wins.
 +
 +       The  ______ keyword of a system's ___________ file can be overridden on
 +       a per-process basis by setting the environment variable LOCALDOMAIN  to
 +       a space-separated list of search domains.
 +
 +       The  _______ keyword of a system's ___________ file can be amended on a
 +       per-process basis by setting the environment variable RES_OPTIONS to  a
 +       space-separated  list  of  resolver  options  as  explained above under
 +       options.
 +
 +       The keyword and value must appear on a single  line,  and  the  keyword
 +       (e.g., nameserver) must start the line.  The value follows the keyword,
 +       separated by white space.
