Hi Serge, I agree that it's still debatable what the default behavior should be. There are at least two behaviors which would be sane.
1. VMs have the same view of DNS as their host except that they can resolve names of VMs. 2. VMs have the same view of DNS as their host including being able to resolve names of VMs. AIUI, #1 is the current default behavior. The submitter seems to claim that #2 used to be the default behavior; in any case the submitter requests that #2 be the default behavior in the future. Behavior #2 is obviously more convenient. Implementing it requires that the host send DNS queries to dnsmasq-libvirt. That may not be what maintainers are willing to configure as the default, but it's something that I think should at least be offered as an option. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1163147 Title: Please run dnsmasq in such a way that it can also be used on the host — to look up the VMs' names To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1163147/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
