Description Peter Lampione 2002-12-18 18:56:02 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020830

Description of problem:
When redhat-config-network is used to modify settings after the first install
(launched from KDE in user mode), it writes the files
/etc/hosts
/etc/resolv.conf
with owner root and permission 600.  This causes DNS lookup for the user to fail
(other things may fail as well).

WORKAROUND: after using redhat-config-network, su to root, 
and manually change the permissions to 644. 

A very irritating bug (took long to figure out until I noticed 
that DNS _did_ work for root). 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Use redhat-config-network from user. 
2.Modify the IP address, or something in the DNS entries, causing 
  redhat-config-network to re-write /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf
3.Try to ping a host whose IP address is not known to the machine.
