[Bug 915760] New: NetworkManager fails configuring DNS servers when switching network
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=915760 Bug ID: 915760 Summary: NetworkManager fails configuring DNS servers when switching network Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: 13.2 Hardware: x86-64 OS: openSUSE 13.2 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Network Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: tsuroerusu@gmail.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:35.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/35.0 Build Identifier: I run IT at a fairly large school (By Danish standards), and we lend out laptops to students. For this purpose, we have deployed openSUSE 13.2, generally with great success. These are generally ThinkPad R60 and R61 machines, they run openSUSE 13.2 with KDE. However, we are experiencing a problem. When switching between networks, for example from wireless to wireless or wireless to statically configured wired, NetworkManager does not properly alter /etc/resolv.conf with the new DNS servers. Recently, a student took home their borrowed laptop, and connected it to their private wireless network. But when they came back to school, NetworkManager had left their home network's DNS servers in resolv.conf, and then no websites would obviously show up. I have also experienced this problem on my personal laptop, when I try to switch from wireless to wired at home, where I have a statically configured IP in NetworkManager on my wired network. Then more often than not, NetworkManager does not configure ANY DNS servers, despite them being specified in its configuration. In all cases, I am referring to the NetworkManager applet in KDE. This is a huge problem for us. I would really really appreciate, if this issue could be looked into as soon as possible. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure a wireless connection in the NM applet. 2. Connect to the wireless network, and surf the web. 3. Connect to a different wireless network, and switch between them, at some point the DNS servers will be mis-configured. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
