I’m having some trouble with my networkmanager on openSuse 11.2. I want it to get the DNS Server from DHCP, but it notices that I had another process modify it (dhcpcd to be exact) and it just won’t overwrite it, resulting in an out of date DNS server to be used.
Any ideas?

If you are obtaining the data from a dhcp server, all the required data to
setup the network adapter should be “automatically” acquired by the client
(ip, netmask, gateway and dns servers).
Can you please explain a bit what is your current situation? There shouldn’t
be any user interaction with networkmanager at all.

I have a similar problem.
When I use vpnc to VPN into a remote network and forget to vpnc-disconnect before shutdown. The resolv.conf is not restored to pre vpnc values.
So when I start the computer after a while I have to force “netconfig -f update” to get dhcp provided name servers.
