Yeah I'm actually stunned that such a design failure is not acted upon by Ubuntu. Guess they just capitalize on the work done by Debian, without having to do the hard work of actually maintaining a distribution.
However this bug MUST sting on servers and 'old-school' people that use /etc/network/interfaces instead of NetworkManager, not to mention all the HOWTOs on the net that suggest solutions involving /etc/network/interfaces. Just apply the new versions of resolvconf files attached to the bug and your problems will be gone, at least until the upgrade to 10.04 :-/ I myself am moving to Debian ASAP grtz, Sander On Sunday 07 February 2010 10:25:55 you wrote: > Just to say I have this bug too. :( > > Symptom: > > After a reboot, /etc/resolv.conf contains only this: > > $ cat /etc/resolv.conf > # Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by > resolvconf(8) # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE > OVERWRITTEN nameserver 127.0.0.1 > nameserver 10.18.4.3 > nameserver 10.18.4.1 > > There is no search domain, yet I specified it in /etc/network/interfaces > as follows: > > dns-nameservers 10.18.4.3 10.18.4.1 > dns-search blah.co.uk fudd.co.uk > > > However, if I now issue the following command : > > $ sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart > > It fixes /etc/resolv.conf, as per this: > > $ cat /etc/resolv.conf > # Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by > resolvconf(8) # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE > OVERWRITTEN nameserver 127.0.0.1 > search blah.co.uk fudd.co.uk > nameserver 10.18.4.3 > nameserver 10.18.4.1 > > Can't wait till this is fixed. -- resolvconf starts after ifupdown, does not pick the dns-nameserver and dns-search lines up from /etc/network/interfaces https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/448095 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
