Hello all,
I've just installed Fedora 18 X86-64. I disabled and uninstalled
networkmanager and use the standard networking stuff which seems to
use dhclient. I'm using a standard ethernet connection.
So I need to do two things. Feel free to tell me to RTFM if you can
provide a link!
1. How do I enable pre-pending of nameservers? I want to use dnsmasq
to cache DNS requests so I need to add 127.0.0.1 to the top of
resolv.conf. Google searchs take me to the Arch Wiki. I can't seem to
find a dhclient.conf file anywhere in /etc.
2. How do I assign a zone in firewalld to my connection? I want to be
able to open ports for bittorrent and XMPP jingle voice/video. The
firewalld wiki on the Fedora site doesn't seem to be able to answer my
question.
thanks in advance,
Ananda Samaddar
