It would be nice if NM supported profiles too. Like "Home" and "Office" where it sets up /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf to be what you'd want for the two different networks.
Shouldn't resolve.conf be pulled from DNS?
From DNS? How's *that* gonna work without a resolv.conf? :)
But anyway, man do I hate it when a DHCP connection overrides the default search path I put in there. When I type an unqualified name on my laptop, I expect it to always mean the same thing. Sigh.
I agree fully. I don't mind (in fact, I'm glad) that the name server changes. However, don't touch my DNS search path.
It would be great if NetworkManager allowed defining a DNS domain that could be prepended to whatever the DHCP sent (if any). Windows allows this.
This can be done with dhclient-XXX.conf
