I've got another fix. Edit your /etc/resolv.conf for the nameservers you want.

[Bug 91890] Re: Custom DNS settings lost on boot
Confirmed again. Today I've installed Intrepid on another machine. Had to enter DNS settings for my wired connection manually (in XP it is unnecessary - I don't know what is with that connection). I opened NM, set DHCP with custom-set DNS in the IPv4 tab and everything was fine until reboot. Connection was reset to pure DHCP, DNS settings were lost. ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- Custom DNS settings lost on boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/91890 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I meant the opendns workaround. I am afraid this bug is still unfixed for Intrepid. Newly installed Intrepid: Edit connections-IPv4 settings-Automatic address only-I put my DNS servers. DNS servers are reverted to old settings on next boot.

I found another way to solve this bug. I 've edited /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base, and added a line with nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, where x needs to be replaced by your ips numbers. Then you can run resovconf -u, this will write the content of base into resolv.conf, you can check if it's ok. Restart the networking services (/etc/init.d/networking restart), or reboot the machine.

I experience the same annoying issue.

[Bug 91890] Re: Custom DNS settings lost on boot
I have the same problem as the OP on Ubuntu Gutsy using DHCP. Furthermore, I can't find the location where network-manager keeps the DNS server setting except for /etc/resolv.conf which is rewritten whenever I (re)connect to my network. If I run 'dhclient eth1' manually, the file is rewritten as well, with the added DNS server lost or replaced by the one returned by the DHCP server. Using a static IP address the DNS settings are kept in /etc/resolv.conf on my machine, so I can't confirm the behaviour russofris reported. Using DHCP the real solution is certainly to set the DNS server in the DHCP server (if you have access to it) or to use the workaround described by Roderick Drew. In so far one could argue that it's not a bug. However, the nm-applet interface gives the impression that it can override the DNS setting; and that actually works, except that network- manager can't keep that information over multiple sessions. If network-manager is designed to work that way, I think the behaviour should at least be documented. It might even make sense to implement the DNS/DHCP workaround described by Roderick Drew in the network-manager (with the addition of domain- name for search domains). OTOH, this might also not be what the user expects, e.g. when roaming is activated.
