Re: Editing the DNS with Network Manager Non Root

I have a network manager applet on my xfce4 desktop. I am logged in as a
non root user, and I can select edit connections and change the IPv4
settings to DHCP address only and then put in a DNS, then save. If I
look at /etc/resolv.conf though nothing has changed. Restarting
networking or rebooting makes no difference. Perhaps this menu option
should only appear for root, or should cause an error message for non
root users?
I typically need to enter the root password whenever I make changes via the Xfce NetworkManager Applet. 


Please run and post:

$ cat /etc/debian_version ; uname -a

$ ls -l /etc/resolv.conf

$ cat /etc/resolv.conf
