Description

It would be fine if it was possible to manage the "options" line in /etc/resolv.conf to put something like that :

-----snip here-----
options timeout:2 attempts:1 rotate
-----snip here-----

I see that you set the targeted version to 2.3.7.

This is a feature, not a bug, and the 2.3 branch is a bug fix only branch. Should I fix it anyway ?

The Policy-Template project doesn't have the same constraint, since each PT/Technique has its own version
You can create a new version of this Policy Template (by a small or large increment) to integrate the modification in 2.3

I'm validating this user story, so that we can release 2.3.7, but I think we can do better.

Currently, we ask the user to input a "options" line compatible with resolv.conf format, but this line is actually a set of sub-options (ndots, timeout, rotate...), some of which take values (number of seconds , number of times) and others are booleans. These would be much better represented by the corresponding fields in Rudder, so I'm opening a new user story for that: #2462.
