хм ... а у меня такой man resolv.conf

options
Options allows certain internal resolver variables to be modified. The syntax is
options option ...
where option is one of the following:
debug sets RES_DEBUG in _res.options.
ndots:n
sets a threshold for the number of dots which must appear in a name given to res_query(3) (see resolver(3)) before an initial
absolute query will be made. The default for n is 1, meaning that if there are any dots in a name, the name will be tried first
as an absolute name before any search list elements are appended to it.
timeout:n
sets the amount of time the resolver will wait for a response from a remote name server before retrying the query via a different
name server. Measured in seconds, the default is RES_TIMEOUT (currently 5, see <resolv.h>).
attempts:n
sets the number of times the resolver will send a query to its name servers before giving up and returning an error to the call‐
ing application. The default is RES_DFLRETRY (currently 2, see <resolv.h>).
rotate sets RES_ROTATE in _res.options, which causes round robin selection of nameservers from among those listed. This has the effect
of spreading the query load among all listed servers, rather than having all clients try the first listed server first every
time.
no-check-names
sets RES_NOCHECKNAME in _res.options, which disables the modern BIND checking of incoming hostnames and mail names for invalid
characters such as underscore (_), non-ASCII, or control characters.
