[SOLVED] resolv.conf resets on restart

Hi,

The reason i need to edit resolv.conf is due to error...core.db...pacman even if im connected to wifi with working internet ,this is also the way i installed arch.
But every time i restart computer savings from resolv.conf are lost and i need to edit it again.Help!

Re: [SOLVED] resolv.conf resets on restart

@OP: Edit the file at /etc/dhcpcd.conf and add this line at the bottom:

nohook resolv.conf

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Re … pcd_config

Alternatively, make the resolv.conf file immutable:

# chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf

^ Raynman linked to the same wiki page. I guess an echo is a good thing.

Re: [SOLVED] resolv.conf resets on restart

Hi,this is the output

-------------e-- /etc/resolv.conf

The immutable bit is not set; try again:

# chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf

It should then look like this:

empty@Arch ~ % lsattr /etc/resolv.conf
----i--------e-- /etc/resolv.conf
