Description Davide Moretti 2008-04-22 13:09:11 UTC 
Description of problem:
COnfiguring eth0 to use a static IP address and setting manual DNS entries in
system-config-network, when using systemwide NetworkManager, results in an empty
/etc/resolv.conf file


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
NetworkManager-0.7.0-0.9.2.svn3566.fc9.i386


How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. setup eth0 to use a static IP address and enter manual DNS entries
2. cat /etc/resolv.conf (to confirm entered DNS)
3. service NetworkManager restart
4. cat /etc/resolv.conf (empty file)

Actual results:

cat /etc/resolv.conf

# Configured by NetworkManager (do not edit)



Expected results:

cat /etc/resolv.conf

nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx


Additional info:

Adding a eth0  local configuration using the gnome applet works correctly, but
then eth0 would only work when logged into GNOME, and not in runlevel 3 for example.

Try putting DNS1=xxxxxx and DNS2=xxxxxx into your ifcfg-eth0 file (or whatever
the device name you're using is).

This works, but puts only DNS1 value in /etc/resolv.conf, DNS2 is ignored.

So it seems at least that system-config-network needs to be updated to be able
to edit DNS1 and DNS2 in the config filess....
