If not, what exactly does it say? I see a "DNS search path", that means a suffix to add onto the end of a dotless hostname, to subsequently try. e.g. If you tried to "ping test" (i.e. lazy typing) when you had "example.com" in the "DNS search path" it'll try pinging "test", or "test.example.com" if it didn't find an IP for "test" in your hosts file. If you're referring to entering a FQDN for your system, I wouldn't expect it to be something with "dns" in the name (typically, something like that's the sort of hostname you'd see someone assign to a dedicated domain name server). I can't quite imagine why you'd be entering a hostname for a DNS server belonging to your ISP in your network configuration. -- (Currently running FC4, but testing FC5, if that's important.)
