where android save the DNS server ?
/etc exist, but don't exist /etc/resolv.conf.
By default android use dns passed by dhcp , but where save it ?
I mean in a rooted phone, with full file system accress.
I tried to help but I didn't get very far - most likely because I don't
have a DNS proxy set up on my phone - but here's what I found out anyway.

I care very much that people can get answers on this c.m.a newsgroup.
But most people on this newsgroup have not rooted their Android devices.
My Samsung Galaxy A32-5G can't be rooted (as far as anyone knows),
but it's a good question of where the DNS server settings reside.
Googling, it seems we covered this topic in detail already this month.

The OP didn't say the Android version as the location differs slightly. Settings > Network & Internet > Private DNS > Private DNS provider hostname Settings > Connections > More connection settings > Private DNS
Again, that's for non-rooted phones.
In addition to that c.m.a thread, this article was published this month.
*How to make Android use the DNS server of your choice*

Yet again, for non-rooted phones.
However, even non-rooted phones have read-only access to the /etc filesys.
To take a look for you, I turned on two different Android WebDAV servers.
[Each WebDAV server mounts an sdcard (sdcard0 & sdcard1) that's why.]
net use Y: \\192.168.1.4@8000\DavWWWRoot /USER:foo bar
net use Z: \\192.168.1.4@9000\DavWWWRoot
Hmmmm... I don't have resolv.conf in my /etc on my Androiod phone...
What you seek "might" be in /dev/socket/dnsproxyd though...
Anyway, that's enough information for anyone who is NOT ROOTED to search
the read-only /etc file system on Android - but for the OP - I can't help
as I don't even have a resolv.conf in my /etc/ directory (unfortunately).
However, I don't have private DNS set up either - so maybe it only shows up _after_ we set up Private DNS? I don't know. It's a common question though.

Maybe someone who is both rooted and who set up DNS proxy can help.
