OTOH, I run my own name server for my tiny home network and was none too pleased to find NM wiping my name server out of /etc/resolv.conf. I was querying this list about a somewhat-related problem when somebody (don't recall the name offhand) made the brilliant suggestion to mark resolv.conf as "immutable". I've added the following to my resolv.conf to remind me of what I did and how to undo it: # # I've marked this file as "immutable" via: # # chattr +i resolv.conf # # To undo that: # # chattr -i resolv.conf I haven't been mugged by NM since I did this. BTW, I did the same thing to my iptables file to keep some helpful system utility (NM?) from messing with my configuration. -- Mike -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
