This all started with a power out crash thanks to my Electrical Company. After power came back up I could not access the server via the network. When I first got to the console I could not log in as root nor could if do an "su" as my user log in. Using Webmin via localhost I found the password hosed but I was able to reset the password via Webmin and after a reboot I could log in as root. I then found I could not ping my static IP from inside or outside. Using the GUI at System/Administration/Network and checking the Interface settings they were correct. If I hit the DNS tab or the Hosts tab I found bogus information. I changed it back to the correct info and did a save followed by a Stop/Start on the interface and gave control back to Network Manager. After a reboot the bogus info had returned! I could only ping from the inside the bogus IP address and of course could not ping it from the outside! So I manually went to /etc/hosts and corrected the bogus info that had a note "Added by Network Manager". I also check /etc/resolv.conf and corrected the bogus DNS info. I checked /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0 and the info there was correct. Reboot and all the bogus info is back, all with the "Added by Network Manager" caveat! Beat the bushes as well as I can I can find no info as to where Network Manage conf files might be named and or located! Anyone have any idea where they are or am I just going to have to kill Network Manager? This one is weird! -- 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
