Package: openresolv Version: 3.4.4-2 Severity: normal I am not sure if this is a bug in openresolv or in the ifupdown package, but it doesn't appear that the /etc/network/if-up.d/000resolvconf field entry to set the domain or sortlist in /etc/resolv.conf from /etc/network/interfaces is working.
In various ifupdown documentation & openresolv scripts I found that that dns-domain, dns-sortlist are valid parameters for the interfaces file, in addition to dns-search, dns-nameservers, and dns-options. BTW: the version of ifupdown that I have tested is: 0.7~alpha5.1 0.7~alpha5+really0.6.10, ifupdown-extra is installed as well: 0.18 here is a sample complex interfaces file excerpt: auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.0.3 network 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255 # dns-domain foo dns-search foo bar dns-nameservers 192.168.0.2 dns-options timeout:5 dns-sortlist 130.155.160.0/255.255.240.0 130.155.0.0 auto eth1 iface eth1 inet static address 192.0.43.10 network 192.0.43.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.0.43.255 gateway 192.0.43.1 dns-domain example.com dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 8.8.8.4 Will result in the following /etc/resolv.conf (Note: local ns installed) $ cat /etc/resolv.conf # Generated by resolvconf search foo bar example.com nameserver 127.0.0.1 nameserver 192.168.0.2 nameserver 8.8.8.8 nameserver 8.8.4.4 options timeout:5 domain & sortlist are missing, and the domain value is being appended to search, plus the eth0 & eth1 stanza's aren't broken up like in the following URL: http://roy.marples.name/projects/openresolv/wiki/OpenResolvReasons Thanks -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.2 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-1-686-pae (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
