No, that is only a common but special case for hosts at the edge of a network, such as a workstation. The most common exceptions to this would be: 1) situations where I want my own DNS, not my providers 2) situations where I am sitting between 2 networks, which DNS field should I take? 3) it is not required that DHCP provide me DNS fields - that is a commonly configured field only 4) situations where I do not want DNS to preempt local sources like FILES. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
