What do you mean by they gave you a new "DNS address", though?
what I mean by this is my ISP gave me their new DNS address so that I can configure in my box and that's what I did. I didn't gave DNS address, instead I set the new primary and secondary DNS servers in my network cofiguration.
# locate hosts |grep /etc /etc/hosts /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/hosts ...[snip]... It's been a while since I played with dialup, but I think the idea was, during dialup to use one as a template, and modify the /etc/hosts while connected, then put it back as it was after disconnection. I can remember that malarkey with the /etc/resolv.conf file, but I can't really remember what changes were made to hosts files. If you edit, and restart the network, out of sequence, you might have a bit of confusion.
It was not out of sequence. What I did was simply changed the old primary and secondary DNS address to new one. Reactivated the network. All of a sudden my hostname is changed together with that. My question is still remains: Does this utility just wipes out everything and rewrites without considering what is already been configured? -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
