    DNS does not persist after reboot?

    Hi,
    I fired up Fedora last week as I have been away from Linux for years and started playing. One problem I can't fix is the habit of the machine to lose its DNS info after as reboot. I set the dns under system-->administration--> network then save and it then works but once I reboot the field is again empty. I also looked under the ifconfig0 and it lists a entry in DNS. What am I missing?

    Are you using Static or DHCP for your network address?

    If static edit /etc/resolv.conf and enter your DNS servers in there

    If DHCP make sure the DHCP server is handing out the DNS server ip's.
