Description of problem: After creating an xDSL connection with a fresh install of FC1, upon connecting there is no name service. The cause is that the DNS addresses are automatically acquired and entered into /etc/ppp/resolv.conf, but not into /etc/resolv.conf. I worked around this by manually entering the 2 DNS addresses under the DNS tab in redhat-config-network. I'm not sure whether initscripts is the right component for this bug. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): initscripts-7.42-1 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure an xDSL interface. Do _not_ enter the DNS addresses manually, but let them be acquired automatically. 2. Bring up the interface. Actual results: No name service. Must copy the DNS addresses which appear in /etc/ppp/resolv.conf into redhat-config-network for them to be recognized. Expected results: Should have name service without manually entering the DNS addresses. Additional info: I reported this in bug #105748.
Same bug here. - installed FC1 - using redhat-config-network I set up and ADSL connection - works, except /etc/resolv.conf is not populated, have to do it manually. /etc/pp/resolv.conf gets the correct data Seems there are a lot of duplicates of this bug : 105748, 109578, 98786
Renaming ( changing it's nick ) the xDSL connection to ppp0 supposedly fixes the problem. I personally did not try it.

This is not a duplicate of bug 109601. It is not fixed by initscripts-7.42.2-1 Here is what I did : - install FC1 fresh ( Personal Desktop minus Print Support and Office Apps ) - update everything to latest as of 7-feb-2004 ( including initscripts-7.42.2-1 ) - reboot - Start Menu -> System Settings -> Network -> New -> xDSL Connection , enter Provider name, Login name and Password, click Apply - reboot - log in as non-root into X - Start Menu -> System Tools -> Network Device Control -> Activate hte xDSL connections Results : everything works, except DNS as /etc/resolv.conf is empty. After adding the line "nameserver 193.189.160.11" ( got server address from /var/log/messages : Feb 8 14:53:32 localhost pppd[6649]: primary DNS address 193.189.160.11 Feb 8 14:53:32 localhost pppd[6649]: secondary DNS address 193.189.160.12 , everything works OK.
Is PEERDNS set in your ifcfg file?
Can't check right now. I have everything as installed by fresh fedora core test1 system. I haven't changed anything, just set up an xDSL connection by that GUI tool. Then I also tried updating every packages to latest versions as of 7-feb-2004 ( see above ).
PEERDNS=yes in mine.
