Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: network-manager
I use a wireless connection with DHCP (regular home WLAN). Sometimes I
need to add DNS servers manually, for instance if I want to use the
OpenDNS.com service.
To perform this I click the NM icon and then "Manual configuration"
I'm asked for the password, I enter it.
Then I click on the DNS tab.
I remove the existing DNS server, and I add two different servers.
My changes appear in /etc/resolv.conf
Shortly thereafter, the resolv.conf file is changed back to the original DNS
server provided by DHCP.
In my opinion, NM needs to respect the manual changes. NM should be
aware not to override a manual change to resolv.conf, whether it's done
by NM "manual configuration" or by hand.
** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu)
