Description viji 2009-11-23 11:42:49 UTC

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new dial-up connection in KPPP with automatic DNS configuration
2. Connect to Internet
3. open a browser and try to visit fedoraproject.org
  
Actual results:
The browser is unable to lookup fedoraproject.org

Expected results:
You should be able to connect to any host using its domain name.

Additional info:
I found the problem: KPPP tries to get the DNS addresses from
/etc/ppp/resolv.conf which is not present in Fedora 12. So, it is unable to add
DNS server entries to /etc/resolv.conf. However the standard path which pppd
uses to store DNS addresses is /var/run/ppp/resolv.conf.
So, as a workaround it is enough to do a:
ln -s /var/run/ppp/resolv.conf /etc/ppp/resolv.conf

However the actual fix is to modify KPPP to read /var/run/ppp/resolv.conf
instead of /etc/ppp/resolv.conf

Comment 1 Jaroslav Reznik 2009-11-23 15:33:48 UTC

Hi,
could you try please one of these scratchbuilds - depending on your architecture? http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1824864

Should be fixed there, unfortunatelly I don't have access to any modem to test it.

Comment 2 viji 2009-11-24 06:34:06 UTC

I tried to update the package, but getting the dependency error on kdelibs4. I could not find the required 4.3.3 on koji

# rpm -Uvh kdenetwork-libs-4.3.3-6.fc12.x86_64.rpm kdenetwork-4.3.3-6.fc12.x86_64.rpm kdepimlibs-4.3.3-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm kdepimlibs-akonadi-4.3.3-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
        kdelibs4 >= 4.3.3 is needed by kdepimlibs-4.3.3-1.fc12.x86_64

Comment 3 Kevin Kofler 2009-11-24 09:54:08 UTC

kdelibs4 is a virtual Provides provided by kdelibs.

Comment 4 viji 2009-11-25 07:31:17 UTC

working fine with koji packages

kdenetwork-4.3.3-6.fc12.x86_64.rpm
kdenetwork-libs-4.3.3-6.fc12.x86_64.rpm
kdepimlibs-4.3.3-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm

kdelibs-4.3.3-4.fc12.x86_64.rpm
kdelibs-common-4.3.3-4.fc12.x86_64.rpm

Comment 5 Jaroslav Reznik 2009-11-25 12:26:40 UTC

Ok,
thanks for help with testing. It's caused by ppp-2.4.3-usepeerdns-var_run_ppp_resolv.conf patch in ppp package and affects all kdenetwork Fedora releases. I'm already in touch with PPP maintainer.

Comment 6 Jaroslav Reznik 2009-11-25 14:53:57 UTC

Adding reference to upstream's wishlist for custom resolv.conf paths.
