Description Forgotten User 9WJQF5tTlz 2007-06-12 03:08:41 UTC
My current network configuration is using DHCP to setup DNS.

Browsing the network configuration tab for Hostname/DNS, it shows the domain search string handed by the DHCP server. The program deems the string invalid, and does not let me out of the tab. Since this field is not editable, I have to uncheck one of the toggles so I can delete it and let me continue.

Since I can't make the DHCP server hand a "valid" value, can I suggest an "Ignore" option to the error message so the user can continue?

I'm attaching a snapshot to illustrate the situation.
