# Set DNS settings
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Change the default DNS server
|
||
|
|
||
|
On Arch and most modern Linux distributions domain name resolution is handled
|
||
|
via the `systemd-resolved` #systemd configuration.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Within the system systemd files this will be handled in
|
||
|
`/etc/systemd/network/wired.network` or `/etc/systemd/network/wlan.network`
|
||
|
files etc.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In the file below I have turned of DHCP routing and specified the address of my
|
||
|
Pi-Hole device to handle domain name resolution:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
#wlan.network
|
||
|
|
||
|
[Match]
|
||
|
Name=wl*
|
||
|
|
||
|
[Link]
|
||
|
RequiredForOnline=routable
|
||
|
|
||

|
||
|
DHCP=yes
|
||
|
DNS=192.168.0.4
|
||
|
MulticastDNS=yes
|
||
|
|
||
|
[DHCPv4]
|
||
|
UseDNS=no
|
||
|
RouteMetric=600
|
||
|
|
||
|
[IPv6AcceptRA]
|
||
|
RouteMetric=600
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
This stops it using the default DNS server of my router and runs the resolutions
|
||
|
against Pi-Hole.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This should automatically update the two `resolv.conf` files (which should be in
|
||
|
syc), viz:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
# File: /run/NetworkManager/resolv.conf
|
||
|
# Generated by NetworkManager
|
||
|
nameserver 192.168.0.4
|
||
|
nameserver fded:2060:8671:0:681:9bff:fe9b:37f0
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
# File: /etc/resolv.conf
|
||
|
# Generated by NetworkManager
|
||
|
nameserver 192.168.0.4
|
||
|
nameserver fded:2060:8671:0:681:9bff:fe9b:37f0
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
