I have set up Jessie some time ago and have recently connected it to my 
home network however it is not resolving names via DNS. To get started I 
realize there are a few ways to set this up but I am assuming the Jessie 
install used NetworkManager. if I look in my running processes list I see:
   /usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon
Does this mean that it is presently running and subsuming the network 
management tasks?

Thanks
Fritz

The Jessie install uses netcfg to configure networking, You only have NM
because of something you did later; for example, installing a desktop
task. Please see

  https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkManager

and

  https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkConfiguration

You could also try

  dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf
