Much to my surprise, I found this: # Generated by NetworkManager search midcoip.net nameserver 192.168.0.1 nameserver 2001:48f8:3004:2ce:5a19:f8ff:fe9e:a4bc I doubt it's the source of my problems, but the second line looks like something midco did to me somehow. I have noticed a midco search when I wasn't expecting one. My problems predate midco. -- Michael henneb...

Normally I run Centos 7, but I accidently booted a German Knoppix OS. I'm back to Centos 7, but now my LXterms all have hennebry at Microknoppix on top. WTF? How did that happen? How do I fix it? How do I make it not happen again? What other trouble should I be looking for? I opened a couple LXterms, looked at man pages and ran xrandr as root a few times. Also I ran shutdown a couple times.

...If you are using ethernet (and not a wireless device or some other internet connectivity) you should have an ifcfg- file for the interface.

...; DNS IPs you want. What I want is to keep midco from hijacking searches. Keeping midco's DHCP from adding a search line to resolv.conf seems to be the key. I'll hard-code DNS servers if I have to, but that is not the point of this. Currently I have # Generated by NetworkManager # search midcoip.net nameserver 2001:48f8:3004:2ce:5a19:f8ff:fe9e:a4bc nameserver 192.168.0.1 My understanding is that the network manager generates resolv.conf and DHCP edits it. Does the network manager include nameservers? Would putting PEERDNS=no in a ifcfg-eth0 file result in an empty resolv.conf ? I realize...

For whatever reason, the problem I was trying to solve seems to have gone away. I can type in firefox's search box without midco stealing searches. Something changed resolv.conf behind my back. search midcoip.net is there again. I hadn't rebooted or changed firefox's preferences. I'm guessing it was when I turned the connection off and on. To be sure my joy was not tempory, I rebooted. midco still not stealing searches. I wish I knew what the problem had been and what fixed it. -- Michael...
