+.TH CURLOPT_DNS_SERVERS 3 "19 Jun 2014" "libcurl 7.37.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"
+.SH NAME
+CURLOPT_DNS_SERVERS \- set preferred DNS servers
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+#include <gnurl/curl.h>
+
+CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_DNS_SERVERS, char *servers);
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Pass a char * that is the list of DNS servers to be used instead of the system
+default. The format of the dns servers option is:
+
+host[:port][,host[:port]]...
+
+For example:
+
+192.168.1.100,192.168.1.101,3.4.5.6
+
+The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this
+option.
+.SH DEFAULT
+NULL - use system default
+.SH PROTOCOLS
+All
+.SH EXAMPLE
+.nf
+CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
+if(curl) {
+ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://example.com/foo.bin");
+ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_DNS_SERVERS, "192.168.1.100:53,192.168.1.101");
+ ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
+ curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
+}
+.fi
+.SH AVAILABILITY
+This option requires that libcurl was built with a resolver backend that
+supports this operation. The c-ares backend is the only such one.
+
+Added in 7.24.0
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not,
+CURLE_NOT_BUILT_IN if support was disabled at compile-time,
+CURLE_BAD_FUNCTION_ARGUMENT when given an invalid server list, or
+CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
