Ubuntu 17.10 shipped with something broken related to DNS/systemd-resolved that wasn't fixed for the entire release. systemd-resolve will claim that a certain DNS server is in use, direct queries to that DNS server work, but queries to the systemd-resolved resolver return NXDOMAIN. Clearing the cache doesn't help. Yes, you can turn that off, but I'm counting that as something broken. - -- ____ || \\UTGERS, |----------------------*O*------------------------ ||_// the State | Ryan Novosielski - novos...@rutgers.edu || \\ University | Sr. Technologist - 973/972.0922 ~*~ RBHS Campus || \\ of NJ | Office of Advanced Res.
