I think what I said is perfectly clear. My laptop is not the server. I don't see how anyone could interpret what I said to mean that. Surely if someone speaks of a laptop and a server the implication is that they are different machines? To spell it out. My server is an HP MicroServer running CentOS-6.3 . My laptop is a ThinkPad T61p running Fedora-17/KDE . I have shown above the entry I have in /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf on the server . As I said, if I lose WiFi connection then /etc/resolv.conf on my laptop is over-written (commented out). When I come back into WiFi range, /etc/resolv.conf is not re-written. Nor is it re-written if I re-start NM on my laptop. However, if I re-boot my laptop then it is re-written. Have you actually gone out of range while linked to an access point? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College Dublin -- 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?
