My /etc/resolv.conf gets overwritten every time dhcpcd runs.

My /etc/conf.d/net

Code:
config_eth0=("dhcp")
dhcp_eth0="-R -t 5 -N"


The "-R' should do the trick, right?

Yes it should. Have you checked the header of resolv.conf to see what is overwriting it? All dhcp clients in portage put a header there to say who made it

Code:
# Generated by dhcpcd for interface eth0
nameserver 192.168.1.1


is what is in my /etc/resolv.conf after it gets overwritten

Code:
config_eth0=( "dhcp" )
dhcpcd_eth0="-R -t 5 -N"


There we go - dhcpcd and not dhcp
