I would love to know the outcome of this discussion, since we just made a change to NetworkManager git master (will be version 1.2, target Fedora 23) to make /etc/resolv.conf a symlink when it's under NM's control. If there are problems here, we want to know too. * NM won't replace a symlinked /etc/resolv.conf that doesn't point to NM's copy in /var * You can disable this behavior with "dns=none" in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf and manage resolv.conf on your own too Dan -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
