Specifying DNS information in a network profile

Hi,

I am currently using two network profiles to control the behaviour of my
ethernet device.  I use DHCP at home, but work requires me to specify a
static IP.  My DHCP server at home supplies DNS info, but right now I
have to manually specify name servers every time I switch into the work
profile.  Is there any way to specify DNS info (nameservers and search
suffix) in the device profile itself?

I know you can specify the gateway in the ifcfg-eth? file, even though
this option isn't available from redhat-config-network.  Is there a
similar option available to specify nameservers?

Thanks,

Luke
