Hi, unfortunately, I have read your message too late and I cannot perform the test. I can however provide some additional info.
Our dhcp server provides the addresses of 3 nameservers. The first server is internal to our network and is the only one that can resolv the name of the web server that offers the authentication window. It is also probably the slower. The other two servers are external and cannot resolve the name of the internal authentication server. I have a feeling that when these 3 nameservers go into resolv.conf, the resolver library tries them in order. Hence, the internal server is queried first and provides the name. Conversely, when these nameservers go into the dnsmasq conf and names start getting resolved with dnsmasq, the order is not followed anymore and the first server to answer says that the name cannot be resolved. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/993794 Title: Precise resolvconf+dnsmasq setup breaks logging in some wireless networks To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/resolvconf/+bug/993794/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
