[rhelv6-list] resolv.conf being overwritten by NetworkManager

Problem has been identified.

If you have a /etc/resolv.conf.save when you do service network restart it takes the .save file and replaces /etc/resolv.conf with it.

We have an audit happening after the build which I confirmed my resolv.conf was correct after my build

Are you certain the comment in /etc/resolv.conf about NetworkManager was not the one written by Anaconda during installation?  Even when NetworkManager is not installed on the local disk, this comment will exist because Anaconda has it's own version of NetworkManager.

Have a problem where the other day my /etc/resolv.conf file was overwritten and the file said it had been overwritten by NetworkManager. NetworkManager is not installed. My server has 8 ethernet ports but I am only using 1 with a static address. Not sure how this is happening.
