Are you telling dhcpcd via its config to not take resolv.conf from DHCP, via something like static domain_name=example.com static domain_name_servers=127.0.0.1 ? That seems to be how you tell it not to write resolv.conf from what comes over DHCP. If you did that and it's still writing an empty one, that sounds like a bug. Also, I really don't understand what you are doing. Are you talking about running dhcpcd on client machines on the local LAN, or on the machine that serves the LAN and has an ISP interface too, or semothing else?
