add this to your /etc/conf.d/net
dns_servers_ESSID=( "192.168.0.1" "192.168.0.2" ) dns_domain_ESSID="some.domain" dns_search_ESSID="search.this.domain search.that.domain" you can also swap-out ESSID for eth0/wlan0 respectivly if they settings differ. This way, when you start the rspective device, /etc/resolv.conf will get the right settings.
