Seems like someone should have made that a browser function that works.

BS. All this does is give Google another way to datamine and track tendencies on the internet.

They changed the linux instructions from yesterday.
I did it the way the updated instructions said before they changed it.
They had
Changing DNS server settings on a Debian server
as the general linux instructions.
On my ubuntu box it was a couple of clicks and put in DNS.
They had people going into terminal yesterday to change it wonder how many noobs f'ed up their linux boxes yesterday.

The only thing worse than the "dumbasses" in a corporate production environment are the users who think that since they know how to turn on a PC, move a mouse, and maybe even click on the "install" button, they know more about computers and operating systems and networking and security than the people who actually do that for a living.

I can't tell you how many times the dumbasses I work with bitch and complain because we protect our network with a firewall, and then they STILL manage to infect their laptops with malware because they take them home and surf the porn sites.

My guess is that your corporate I/T guys have a pretty good reason for not letting you screw around with your network settings.
