[Bug 340383] [NEW] dhcpd sends 127.0.1.1 as DNS server
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: dhcp3-server I believe this is a bug. Ubuntu configures sets the hostname in /etc/hosts and assigns it to 127.0.1.1: 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 server.example.com server The dhcpd server picks this up and sends it as primary DNS server (DHCP and DNS are on the same machine here) to dhcp clients (see attached dhcpdump output). Assigning the wrong DNS server leads to timeouts on Mac and Linux (Unix) clients, but it does not seem to affect Windows systems. As soon as I comment 127.0.1.1 in /etc/hosts out and restart the dhcpd server the problem is gone. I did not find a configuration option for dhcpd to supress this and I also think even if it was there it should not be used for this. The entry 127.0.1.1 seems to be wrong in my opinion. Thanks. ** Affects: dhcp3 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- dhcpd sends 127.0.1.1 as DNS server https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/340383 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dhcp3 in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
