   Ran into this problem yesterday trying to upgrade to 15.0 on one of the   
   computers.  Upgrade was aborted, I have a WiFi dongle and the process doesn't   
   see it, or another of a different manufacture.  I'll have to figure this out.   
   When I booted back into 47.3 DNS was failing.  I used Yast to re-input the   
   servers.  It still wasn't working.  I determined that the resolv.conf file was   
   incomplete.   
      
   On two other machines, which are running 47.3, and have never been exposed to   
   15.0, I find:   
      
   sidney@Crab~> cat /etc/resolv.conf   
   # Generated by NetworkManager   
   search Acme   
   nameserver (only one)   
      
   sidney@Crab~> cat /etc/resolv.conf.netconfig   
   ### /etc/resolv.conf file autogenerated by netconfig!   
   #   
   # Before you change this file manually, consider to define the   
   # static DNS configuration using the following variables in the   
   # /etc/sysconfig/network/config file:   
   #     NETCONFIG_DNS_STATIC_SEARCHLIST   
   #     NETCONFIG_DNS_STATIC_SERVERS   
   #     NETCONFIG_DNS_FORWARDER   
   # or disable DNS configuration updates via netconfig by setting:   
   #     NETCONFIG_DNS_POLICY=''   
   #   
   # See also the netconfig(8) manual page and other documentation.   
   #   
   # Note: Manual change of this file disables netconfig too, but   
   # may get lost when this file contains comments or empty lines   
   # only, the netconfig settings are same with settings in this   
   # file and in case of a "netconfig update -f" call.   
   #   
   ### Please remove (at least) this line when you modify the file!   
   search Acme   
   nameserver (the correct list)   
      
   Looks like there's dueling netconfig/NetworkManager involved.  I don't believe   
   I've ever looked at this file, much less modified it.  Oddly enough on the 4th   
   computer there's only /etc/resolv.conf.  Nothing like consistency.

   OK.   
      
   I did this also, except I used vi.
