I first experience this issue with nm version 1.8.2-1ubuntu1 in an - as of writing fully updated - 17.04.
Syslog will be attached, from that you can see that dnsmask gets the nameserver, networkmanager gets it too, but it doesn't make to resolv.conf, that will only have the stub resolver. /etc/resolv.conf is a link ending in /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf. Workaround is to manually add the nameserver to resolv conf and comment out "dns=dnsmasq" in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf which is really annoying on a laptop which you move around a lot. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to dnsmasq in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1568787 Title: resolvconf does not reliable receive nameserver information from NetworkManager Status in dbus package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in dnsmasq package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: resolvconf does not reliable receive nameserver information from NetworkManager. In the journal I see things like: Apr 11 11:13:52 ottawa dnsmasq[3122]: setting upstream servers from DBus Apr 11 11:13:52 ottawa dnsmasq[3122]: using nameserver fe80::1#53 Apr 11 11:13:52 ottawa dnsmasq[3122]: using nameserver 192.168.1.254#53 Apr 11 11:13:52 ottawa dbus[978]: [system] Rejected send message, 13 matched rules; type="method_return", sender=":1.99" (uid=0 pid=3122 comm="/usr/sbin/dnsmasq --no-resolv --keep-in-foreground") interface="(unset)" member="(unset)" error name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination=":1.8" (uid=0 pid=1017 comm="/usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon ") Apr 11 11:04:21 ottawa NetworkManager[1017]: <info> DNS: starting dnsmasq...
