--- Comment #10 from Marius Tomaschewski
Problem with loosing user settings can be worked around if netconfig creates backup of resolv.conf before writing new, so that user can combine both. Not a solution, but better then starting from scratch.
This bug was not about loosing user settings because netconfig would overwrite it, but about NM writing the resolv.conf directly without to use netconfig and ignoring the (user) policy for resolv.conf updates. Netconfig does not overwrite any user settings /etc/resolv.conf, there is no work around/backup needed. It generates resolv.conf.netconfig in such cases. Generally, user settings should go to the yast2 network module and then to network/config or NetworkManager GUI to some place where NM stores them. The backup of all sysconfig files is created at /var/adm/backup/sysconfig. Alternatively, the user can set NETCONFIG_DNS_POLICY='' and maintain the resolv.conf and related files himself. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
