    search resolv.conf option via kcontrol

    Hello,

    Is it possible to set up multiple search domains in resolv.conf via KDE network control tool? I see I can manage 'domain' option via GUI configuration, but how can I set 'search domain1 domain2 ...'?

    Thanks in advance.

    Not sure I understand your question. In K Menu | System Settings | Network Settings | Domain Name System (you have to access via Administrator Mode button), you add, edit, or remove the entries. These entries correspond to your ISPs DNS servers.

      Thanks. I am asking not about DNS servers, but about 'search' option entries in resolv.conf. It it possible to specify several search domains:

      Code:
      $ cat /etc/resolv.conf
      search pht local uxp
      nameserver 192.168.0.1
      As you may see, there are three domains in 'search' option, and if I do

      Code:
      ping server
      resolver will try to resolve server, server.pht, server.local and server.uxp.

      I am wondering how can I set up this behaviour with KDE GUI configuration interface.

        Is this impossible? If it is, how can I make KNetworkManager stop rewriting my /etc/resolv.conf?

        Thanks in advance.
