On the KDE Network Management Plasmoid I just edit the connection and change the Method from "Automatic (DHCP)" to "Automatic (DHCP) addresses only" and type the IP address of my DNS server into the DNS Servers field, hit OK and be done. I find this much simpler than with the configuration method I used before NetworkManager. And I can change this per connection so that at home I use my local DNS while at work I use whatever the DHCP server gives me.

But how do you update the forwarding address in your DNS cache daemon?
