    I don't know if this mail will get out, nor do I know if I will receive any
    replies, but it's a try. It appears that the last updates from YOU have
    cause the nameserver entry to be deleted everytime I reboot. Has anybody
    else seen this?
    $ ssh -X root@localhost\
     -f /usr/X11/bin/xterm\
     -T 'root@localhost'\
     -geometry 80x58+400+600\
     -font 10x20 -background \'#ffdddd\'

    # yast2&
    Network Services ->
    DNS and Hostname ->
    Name Server and Domain Search List ->
    Name Server 1 -> [IP_ADDRESS_OF_DNS]
    Domain Search 1 -> [local.domain]
    Finish

    exit YaST2
    ^d

    $ ping www.suse.de

    Good things happen.

    Reboot and I cannot ping anything. When I go back to the same dialog in
    YaST2, the name server entry is blank.
