Where would it be, if not /etc/resolv.conf.<something> or somewhere in /etc/sysconfig? sudo find /etc/|grep resolv Password: /etc/resolv.conf /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/resolv.conf dhclient will also clobber /etc/resolv.conf on every reboot if PEERDNS=yes in /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-<device> and/or /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-<device> scripts. NetworkManager is intended to be the the all-knowing all-powerful networking god, and the developers seem to think there is no good reason to back up the pitiful scribblings of mere mortals. That is part of the reason why I "chkconfig Networkmanager off" on anything that is not a laptop. OTOH, maybe if I understood NetworkManager better, I'd know how you properly offer DNS and search domain information to the great and terrible gods of the network without defiling their temple. There must be a way. Supplicants may refer to the ancient texts found in the man pages and the README (/usr/share/doc/NetworkManager-0.7.0/README on my system), I guess.
