Re: DHCP and DNS

Thanks for the response, Manuel.  Although I've had this problem a few
times, I rebooted today, and most things seem to be working.  The DNS
problem seems to have fixed itself.

I think maybe the problem was actually related to an SSL-VPN client
I'm using (Juniper Network Connect), which is heavy handed, and
changed my DNS suffix and secondary DNS servers.

Hi Michael.

What happen if you set up the dns in the /etc/resolv.conf?

I guess that maybe your problem is that the DCHP server is overwritting your
resolv.conf, you might want to take a look at
the: /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX file and look at the line:

PEERDNS maybe you should try to set it to no:
PEERDNS=no

Cheers
Manuel
