I have used static addressing for ages on desktops from FC1,2,3 onwards - and on a desktop machine the best way I know is to add the line: PEERDNS=no to the file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 Then stop NetworkManager by service NetworkManager stop chkconfig NetworkManager off Then start network service network start chkconfig network on With the PEERDNS parameter set in the ifcfg-eth0 file then even if you did use dhcp then /etc/resolv.conf would not get overwritten by dhcp.....
