Renee,
I'm hoping you can help me understand this bug, a bit more. Recall that 
I can't get NWAM to work in office (wired), as it won't fill in 
/etc/resolv.conf. The bug states it was fixed in SNV_b94. I recently 
upgraded to build 103, and am still having issues with it.

What can we do to get this fixed?

Thanks,
Jim
