Sounds like NM is out of the 'hostname setting' business.  You should be
able to edit your /etc/hosts manually and NM will not change it.

Seems like there should be an easy way to 'opt-out' of connection 
tracking.  Have you tried anything like 'iptables -t raw -I PREROUTING 
-j NOTRACK' ?

The iptables man-page says this about the 'raw' table:
"  This table is used mainly for configuring exemptions from connection 
tracking in combination with the NOTRACK target.  It registers  at  the 
netfilter  hooks  with  higher  priority and is thus called before 
ip_conntrack, or any other IP tables.  It provides the following 
built-in chains: PREROUTING (for packets arriving via any network 
interface) OUTPUT (for packets generated by local processes)  "

Cheers.

For the latest attempt at getting some useful 'metric' data from
bugzilla see: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/Metrics
and http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Talk:BugZappers/Metrics

(Those pages are fairly specific to trying to quantify the amount/impact
of the work that the triagers are doing.)

Additionally, bugzilla's report.cgi is worth looking at.  As an
example: The number of 'Triaged' Bugs CLOSED in the last 90days with
breakdown by resolution[1].

I'm part of the native English group. For me, --now would be an almost 
self explanatory option, and so easy to remember!

If --now is unacceptable, how about --immed.

Upcoming Bugzilla Changes: Rawhide Rebase

2010-07-14 Thread Jeff Raber
Greetings,

I hope everyone is well.  This e-mail is intended to inform you about
the upcoming
bugzilla changes happening around July 27, 2010 (Rawhide bug rebase)
and what you
need to do, if anything.

We will be automatically changing the version for most rawhide bugs to
Fedora 14.
This will result in regular bugs reported against rawhide during the Fedora 14
development cycle being changed to version ‘14' instead of their
current assignment, ‘rawhide’.   This is to align with the branching of
Fedora 14 from rawhide and to more accurately tell where in the lineage of
releases the bug was last reported.

Note that this procedure does not apply to bugs that are open for the
‘Package Review’
component or bugs that have the ''FutureFeature'' or ''Tracking'' keywords set.
They will stay open as rawhide bugs indefinitely.

If you do not want your bugs changed to version ‘14‘, add the
FutureFeature keyword.
If you need help changing a large amount of bugs manually, we’d be glad to help.
Stop by #fedora-bugzappers on irc.freenode.net and we’ll gladly help you.

More about these processes is here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
