I have both wired and wireless connections to the same LAN. If I disable wireless then there is only one instance of the address left in nm-dns-dnsmasq.conf.
If I instead disconnect the Ethernet cable then there is only one instance of the address left in nm-dns-dnsmasq.conf. So it seems that the two lines correspond to two interfaces, eth0 and wlan0, by which the (same) nameserver address can be reached. Whatever the cause of the duplication might be, though, I'd think that NM should de-duplicate the list of addresses it gives to dnsmasq. ** Summary changed: - NM writes duplicate lines in /var/run/nm-dns-dnsmasq.conf + If it obtains the same nameserver address for multiple interfaces, NM fails to de-duplicate the list of addresses it gives to dnsmasq via nm-dns-dnsmasq.conf and just includes the same address multiple times -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1015493 Title: If it obtains the same nameserver address for multiple interfaces, NM fails to de-duplicate the list of addresses it gives to dnsmasq via nm-dns-dnsmasq.conf and just includes the same address multiple times To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1015493/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
