>Description:
I'm behind a firewall with DHCP capabilities.
I removed my 4.9 install and went for a 5.2RC2 from scratch (HDD wiped).
I configured the network through sysinstall and rebooted (vr0/DHCP).
My vr0 interface gets its IP address, gateway information .... but no name can be resolved (ping google.com).
I tried to look at my /etc/resolv.conf ... there was no /etc/resolv.conf file.
>How-To-Repeat:
remove /etc/resolv.conf
>Fix:
create an empty /etc/resolv.conf file and restart
