Dear All,
Sometimes, I bring my computer out of suspend-to-disk in a different network environment than the one where it was originally suspended. It automatically runs /etc/init.d/network restart (this being Fedora 8), and dhclient happily gets an IP address for itself and one for a nameserver, putting the latter in /etc/resolv.conf. I can connect to network resources by name, and all is well. Until a couple of minutes later, when something automatically edits resolv.conf, changing the nameserver address back to the one that's appropriate for the old network environment. Any ideas what's going on, please?

If it was debian, I'd be looking for a copy of the resolvconf package misbehaving. Maybe Fedora has a similar artificially-intelligent unhelpful helper. apropos resolv might find it.
Good luck!
