Hmm Not exactly what I want. The fixed eth0 doesn't need a default gateway which is good. This is my control interface in the testbed environment. However the DNS of this interface is very important due to the fact that some servers in the testbed need to be accessible... I am now trying to use resolvconf I've noticed that NM modifies /etc/hosts which causes some troubles in the testbed (nodes are not recognized anymore). What is the cause of this change? > > Dan > |
