    What's in /etc/resolv.conf ? Maybe there is a broken resolver and you need to use another one.

    this is the content

    `# Generated by NetworkManager
    search server.com

    No nameservers found; try putting DNS servers into your

    ifcfg files in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts like so:

    #

    DNS1=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

    DNS2=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

    DOMAIN=lab.foo.com bar.foo.com

    `

    how it should be?

    See, here's your problem.
    Put there something like:

    nameserver 8.8.8.8

    And then try again.

    This is on a VPS? Stop the NetworkManager (chmod 000 it). It will be screwing your network config when it runs.

    Try


    
chmod 000 `which NetworkManager`

    Then reboot.

  • JohnRoeJohnRoe Member

    done.. what it will do?

    I tried to find the files

    [root@vps network-scripts]# find / -name NetworkManager /var/run/NetworkManager /var/lock/subsys/NetworkManager /var/lib/NetworkManager /usr/lib64/NetworkManager /usr/share/NetworkManager /usr/sbin/NetworkManager /etc/rc.d/init.d/NetworkManager /etc/NetworkManager

    will it chmod all the files??

  • AdducAdduc Member

    sudo sudo /sbin/chkconfig --levels 2345 NetworkManager off

  • rds100rds100 Member

    /usr/sbin/NetworkManager it is

    it will disable from start at boot right?
    thanks :)

    thank you soo much.. new knowledge for me :)

  • rds100rds100 Member

    I don't think the chkconfig will disable it. It's started by the gnome desktop environment. Just chmod 000 it and be done with it :) But keep in mind that if there is some update that installs a new version of NetworkManager, it will probably reappear and you will have to chmod 000 again.

    thanks.. I really appreciate it
