F8 t3 DNS setup problem

[Keith Roberts]

I have turned off NetworkManager and NetworkManagerDispatcher.

The /etc/resolv.conf file is now being overwritten by/with:

; generated by /sbin/dhclient-script
search lan

So I uninstalled dhclient and the other packages that are 
dependant on it. My /etc/resolv.conf file is intact after a 
reboot - but I now get 'unknown host' when trying to ping a 
know active host. Have I lost my gateway server settings 
now?

Kind Regards

Keith Roberts
