<div dir="ltr">Due to some ISP snafus, and network reconfiguration, some of my RPI's are pointing to the wrong nameserver. I use a pihole for DNS. Anyways, I have a single RPI2 as a print server and it is stubbornly pointing to the wrong IP address. The RPI2 is running on Raspberry Pi Debian Stretch. I only use this node as the cups printer.<div><br></div><div>If I do cat /etc/resolve.conf I get, # generated by resolvconf nameserver 192.168.1.xxx</div><div>I want to have it permanently point to 192.168.1.1, ie the gateway so that I let the router redirect DNS traffic to pihole. Looking at resolvconf info, it says NOT to use it directly. So how does one do this?</div><div><br></div></div>
