Created attachment 202406 [details] replace tabs by space In resolv.conf keyword "nameserver" and its value (IP address) can be separated by spaces or tabs but local-unbound-setup accepts only spaces resulting in: No forwarders found in resolv.conf, using existing forward.conf. I am not so good in shellscripting so I fixed it by this line local line=$(echo $line | sed -E 's/ / /g') I don't know how to write it as parameter expansion instead of calling sed in a subshell.
