After last nights urpmi --auto-update terminated about half way through,
the network can no longer resolve dns addresses from dhcp and the
nameserver entry has been removed. By modifying the network
configuration through drakconf, unselecting resolve dns addresses from
dhcp, and hard coding the primary dns address to the modem/routers ip
address, and restarting the network I was able to get to the internet again.
What is causing the nameserver entry to be removed? The last set of
packages installed is specified in the thread I raised about the update
failure, which by the way has also caused selecting kde4 from kdm to
actually launch kde3.

Steve
