I need some processes to look elsewhere for DNS information from where the rest of the system looks.. This patch seems to me a simple solution. We over-ride where the resolver looks for resolv.conf using an environment variable. This would allow me to reset this to an application
specific config file that specifies a different server.

Anyone got better ways fo doing this?


Run the special processes in a jail with its own resolv.conf? My gut
reaction to your suggestion is negative, but I'm having a hard time
articulating a solid reason why.

Perhaps if you described your problem in more detail, it would be easier to
work around it, but I can't help thinking that there are better ways to
solve this problem.


I can describe another problem.
shell computer for many groups of users,
each of it want to use own "search"
and probably "nameserver".



definitly!
