I have to create a separate file in /etc/dhclient-eth0.conf and enter the line; prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1; And I have to start "dnsmasq" in Services if you have extra ethx or wlan or what ever you have make extra files in /etc The way you can tell if you have this problem is if you can't connect to certain websites through yum or I couldn't even connect to NTP connections to get time, or connect to RpmFusion.org. Don't pay any attention to how Firefox handles these websites it has it's own IPV6 setups. Some Say if you check or uncheck the box in "Network Configuration" about using IPV6, that will fix the problem. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
