So the arch linux forums are down. I'm trying to test out networkmanager. I got it installed and working, but seem to be having DNS issues. I can connect to sites via IP, but not via name. I read the arch wiki on networkmanager, but quite frankly, some of it made no sense. So anyone have any idea what I did wrong? Here's my /etc/rc.conf before I switched back to wicd:

Code:
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------
# NETWORKING                                                             
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------
#                                                                       
# HOSTNAME: Hostname of machine. Should also be put in /etc/hosts       
#                                                                       
HOSTNAME="d420test"                                                     

# Use 'ifconfig -a' or 'ls /sys/class/net/' to see all available interfaces.
#                                                                           
# Interfaces to start at boot-up (in this order)                           
# Declare each interface then list in INTERFACES                           
#   - prefix an entry in INTERFACES with a ! to disable it                 
#   - no hyphens in your interface names - Bash doesn't like it             
#                                                                           
# DHCP:     Set your interface to "dhcp" (eth0="dhcp")                     
# Wireless: See network profiles below                                     
#

#Static IP example
#eth0="eth0 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255"
eth0="dhcp"
wlan0="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(!eth0 !wlan0)

# Routes to start at boot-up (in this order)
# Declare each route then list in ROUTES
#   - prefix an entry in ROUTES with a ! to disable it
#
gateway="default gw 192.168.0.1"
ROUTES=(!gateway)

# Enable these network profiles at boot-up.  These are only useful
# if you happen to need multiple network configurations (ie, laptop users)
#   - set to 'menu' to present a menu during boot-up (dialog package required)
#   - prefix an entry with a ! to disable it
#
# Network profiles are found in /etc/network.d
#
# This now requires the netcfg package
#
#NETWORKS=(main)

# -----------------------------------------------------------------------
# DAEMONS
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# Daemons to start at boot-up (in this order)
#   - prefix a daemon with a ! to disable it
#   - prefix a daemon with a @ to start it up in the background
#
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng !network hal networkmanager @autofs @cups @crond @sshd netfs !httpd !myssqld !webmin !portmap !fam !postfix)

well /etc/resolv.conf would have been handy to have as well. Do you happy to have that file (with networkmanager)
