Title: URI defined for connectivity check is relative to search domain Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The connectivity check URI as defined in /usr/lib/NetworkManager/conf.d/20-connectivity-ubuntu.conf is not an absolute FQDN (doesn't end in a dot). As such, resolving connectivity- check.ubuntu.com generates queries for connectivity- check.ubuntu.com.localdomain (assuming a common default search domain of "localdomain") in addition to the expected connectivity- check.ubuntu.com . Or, if your ISP provided search domain is myisp.net, then connectivity-check.ubuntu.com.myisp.net is also queried. To reduce unintended traffic, may I suggest a trailing dot to ensure the host portion of the URI is a FQDN? Ex: uri=http://connectivity-check.ubuntu.com./ # lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS Release: 20.04 # apt-cache policy network-manager-config-connectivity-ubuntu network-manager-config-connectivity-ubuntu: Installed: 1.22.10-1ubuntu2.2 Candidate: 1.22.10-1ubuntu2.2 Version table: *** 1.22.10-1ubuntu2.2 500 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-updates/main amd64 Packages 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-updates/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1.22.10-1ubuntu1 500 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal/main amd64 Packages 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal/main i386 Packages # What I expected to happen: Sep 23 18:48:45 dnsmasq[415]: query[AAAA] connectivity-check.ubuntu.com from 192.168.0.111 Sep 23 18:48:45 dnsmasq[415]: query[AAAA] connectivity-check.ubuntu.com from 192.168.0.111 Sep 23 18:50:55 dnsmasq[415]: query[A] connectivity-check.ubuntu.com from 192.168.0.111 (requests resulting in NXDOMAIN or NODATA-IPv6 are made twice) # What happened instead: Sep 23 17:02:49 dnsmasq[415]: query[AAAA] connectivity-check.ubuntu.com from 192.168.0.111 Sep 23 17:02:49 dnsmasq[415]: query[AAAA] connectivity-check.ubuntu.com from 192.168.0.111 Sep 23 17:02:49 dnsmasq[415]: query[AAAA] connectivity-check.ubuntu.com.localdomain from 192.168.0.111 Sep 23 17:02:49 dnsmasq[415]: query[AAAA] connectivity-check.ubuntu.com.localdomain from 192.168.0.111 Sep 23 17:04:42 dnsmasq[415]: query[A] connectivity-check.ubuntu.com from 192.168.0.111 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1944788/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
