Hi Roy,

Is it possible to set static dhcp6_name_servers just like you can set static domain_name_servers?  This doesn't seem to work when I try it.  It may be that 20-resolv.conf isn't processing the variable.  The following code is all that I see in 20-resolv.conf with regard to new_dhcp6_name_servers:

# For ease of use, map DHCP6 names onto our DHCP4 names
case "$reason" in
BOUND6|RENEW6|REBIND6|REBOOT6|INFORM6)
            new_domain_name_servers="$new_dhcp6_name_servers"
            new_domain_search="$new_dhcp6_domain_search"
            ;;
esac

To allow domain name server addresses to come from a DHCPv4 server and from static assignment in dhcpcd.conf but not from a DHCPv6 server or ICMPv6 router advertisement, the setup in dhcpcd.conf would be something like this:

interface eth0
option domain_name_servers
static dhcp6_name_servers=2001:4860:4860:8888

I don't think this works as I expect it to.  What do you think?
