This broke DNS client services on my machine, i.e. I couldn' t browse, email, or do lookups on my main machine, even though other local machines all continue to work. After some head-scratching the problem appears to be that /etc/resolv.conf has been changed to have 127.0.0.1 as the (only) nameserver. Since I' m not running bind or anything similar, this means that DNS is effectively banjaxed.

I have 2 test VM's both with

[egreshko@f18x ~]$ rpm -q NetworkManager
NetworkManager-0.9.7.997-2.fc18.x86_64

One is getting all the address information via DHCP, the other only its routing and IP information.  i.e. using static addresses for DNS.

The other is configured as yours is, I think, and the DNS info comes from a D-Link router pointing the router which has DNS pointing to my ISP's DNS servers.

Everything is running just fine on all my systems...

[egreshko@localhost ~]$ cat /etc/resolv.conf
# Generated by NetworkManager
nameserver 192.168.0.1

You've downgraded NetworkManager to confirm it fixes the issue?
