The <literal>dynamicHosts</literal> option has been removed from the
<link linkend="opt-networking.networkmanager.enable">networkd</link>
module. Allowing (multiple) regular users to override host entries
affecting the whole system opens up a huge attack vector.
There seem to be very rare cases where this might be useful.
Consider setting system-wide host entries using
<link linkend="opt-networking.hosts">networking.hosts</link>, provide
them via the DNS server in your network, or use
<link linkend="opt-environment.etc">environment.etc</link>
to add a file into <literal>/etc/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.d</literal>
reconfiguring <literal>hostsdir</literal>.
