NetworkManager keeps rewriting my /etc/recolv.conf
I added "nohook recolv.conf" to /etc/dhcpcd.conf.
But NetworkManager keeps rewriting the content of /etc/recolv.conf each time I connect to WiFi.

If you use NetworkManager, you do not use dhcpcd...

Re: NetworkManager keeps rewriting my /etc/recolv.conf
Uncommented dns=none in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf and this didn't help.

Re: NetworkManager keeps rewriting my /etc/recolv.conf
I guess you have to add rc-manager=unmanaged.
/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf
[main]
dns=none
rc-manager=unmanagedOffline

Re: NetworkManager keeps rewriting my /etc/recolv.conf
If you use dhcpcd then add to stop dhcpcd from touching your DNS settings (IIRC NM uses wpa_supplicant so this should suffice .. )
nohook resolv.conf, wpa_supplicantto /etc/dhcpcd.conf to stop overwriting the resolv.conf

Re: NetworkManager keeps rewriting my /etc/recolv.conf
They specifically said they're using NetworkManager, so dhcpcd has nothing to do with anything at all.

Re: NetworkManager keeps rewriting my /etc/recolv.conf
Which answer is correct?
I'm using NetworkManager, but I don't know whether or not I'm also using dhcpcd. How to check that?

Re: NetworkManager keeps rewriting my /etc/recolv.conf
As stated in the beginning of the wiki entry, NetworkManager has basic DHCP support. To figure out if dhcpd is enabled separately, run `systemctl status dhcpcd.service`. If it is running/enabled, check this to see how to stop/disable it.
