These are fixed F-17/64 computers and I use NM simply because it's there and works, however I want to change the dns settings and not have them over written. I don't see how it can be done with the edit GUI menu that comes up when I click on the NM icon.It's better to disable networkmanager then. It seems to be more a tool for ever changing connections used with dhcp. In a fixed setup, you don't need it, and disabling it saves you the process constantly running. Other than that, you could change the "NM_CONTROLLED=yes" entry to "NM_CONTROLLED=no" in the ifcfg-* files for your interfaces. That /should/ stop networkmanager from overwriting resolv.conf ... somehow I have doubts that it actually would without further ado.
Actually, I think you can do "PEERDNS=no" in the /etc/sysconfig/network file prevent overwriting the resolv.conf file. If you do that, then remove any "PEERDNS" lines from the ifcfg-* files (or they'll override the setting when they're invoked). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- 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?
