How do I stop a PPP connection setup using rp3-config and dialed using rp3 from doing the "usepeerdns" stuff? Despite the fact that my ISP sends me some DNS settings I DON'T want to use them.
In rp3-config, if you select a connection and hit "Edit", and then go to the "Advanced" tab, there is an option listed as "Configure name resolution automtically". Uncheck that box.
If I use rp3-config to change the "advanced" properties of my dial-up connection to turn automatic name resolution config OFF then rp3 dies with a segmentation fault from then on. If I set up a "standard" dial-up connection, and then edit the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ppp0 file adding the PEERDNS=no line myself then rp3 works a treat. It looks as though rp3-config is adding an incorrect entry into this file or something?
