** Description changed: Binary package hint: network-manager My normal connection is wireless, with a static ip and manually set DNS info. When I temporarily connect my computer to a wired network, network-manager automatically configures using DHCP. In doing so, it overwrites the manual DNS info in /etc/resolv.conf with the DNS info from DHCP completely. When the wired line is disconnected, wireless - doesn't work because the manually set DNS info is not restored. + doesn't work because the manually set DNS info is not restored. This + happens even when the original DNS info in /etc/resolv.conf was set + manually through network-manager itself. I assume the culprit is network-manager in this case because the overwritten /etc/resolv.conf appears as follows (some whitespace removed): # generated by NetworkManager, do not edit! nameserver 192.168.2.1 This happens on Ubuntu 7.10 testing, Tribe 3, up-to-date as of 2007-08-05. network-manger version is 0.6.5-0ubuntu7. The install is one day old and relatively clean. I'm not sure if the bug is gutsy-specific or not. This bug is probably related to [#126592 resolv.conf overwritten on dhcp renew when using NetworkManager vpn plugins]
