Dan, you've been asking for debug infos about NetworkManager & the
resolv.conf problem, so here it comes:
I've been trying to use NetworkManager to manage my ethernet and
wireless devices on FC3. As it was previously said on the list,
NetworkManager sometimes erase the current resolv.conf file with en
empty one.
I did some tests:
NetworkManager will only do the dhcp request when detecting a new
network connection. Which means that if you run NetworkManager when the
network cable is already plugged on the NIC, NetworkManager will not do
the dhcp request and will erase the resolv.conf file with an empty one.
I ran NetworkManager after booting. the network cable is already plugged
on the NIC:
[root at gallilee ~]# NetworkManager --no-daemon
NetworkManager: starting...
NetworkManager: eth0: Driver support level is fully-supported
NetworkManager: nm_create_device_and_add_to_list(): adding device 'eth0'
(wired)
NetworkManager: eth1: Driver support level is fully-supported
NetworkManager: nm_create_device_and_add_to_list(): adding device 'eth1'
(wireless)
NetworkManager: running mainloop...
NetworkManager: nm_dbus_get_networks():
org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerInfo.NoNetworks raised There were are no
wireless networks stored.
NetworkManager: AUTO: Best wired device = eth0, best wireless device =
eth1 ()
NetworkManager: SWITCH: best device changed
NetworkManager: nm_state_modification_monitor(): beginning activation
for device 'eth0'
NetworkManager: nm_state_modification_monitor() activated device eth0
Result: resolv.conf has been erased.
Now, i stop NetworkManager and unplug the network cable then run
NetworkManager once more before replugging the cable:
[root at gallilee ~]# NetworkManager --no-daemon
