It's harder than one could wish to prevent this in F-11, too. What's misleading is that network-scripts contains code that will overwrite resolv.conf with comments claiming to be NetworkManager's handiwork, even though NetworkManager is turned off. The notes I made while debugging my F-11 setup are: network-scripts likes to overwrite /etc/resolv.conf at boot. To prevent, make sure ifconfig-eth0 sets PEERDNS=no and doesn't set DNS1, which is not the way anaconda will have left it. Beware there are three hardlinked copies of this script in /etc/sysconfig/network*/. May also need to fix /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/resolv.conf and make sure /etc/resolv.conf isn't hardlinked to anything, and make sure /etc/resolv.conf.save doesn't exist. The last one is particularly insidious: if there's an /etc/resolv.conf.save, ifdown puts it back :-( If there's still more that has to be done in F-12, would someone tell what? regards, tom lane -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
