I'm running FC4, and last night I was reading about NetworkManager, and I realized I never tried it. So I do: $ su # /etc/init.d/NetworkManager start It started alright, but everything (network) stopped working! BTW, this is happening on a desktop with only a wired eth0. I say 'F@#% it!' and I stop it quickly, but the network is still down. I bounce eth0 once: # ifdown eth0 # ifup eth0 Still no go. After a while I figure out that pings are working, but DNS is foo-bared. Sure enough, NetworkManager completely erased my /etc/resolv.conf! Needless to say, my resolv.conf was 100% hand-edited with search and nameserver entries that NetworkManager can not possibly guess. Why did it feel the need to mess with it? Now, apart from the very frustrating experience, is this intended behavior? If so, does it really have to be this way? -- Dimi Paun <dimi@xxxxxxxxxxx> Lattica, Inc. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
