Title:
Network manager does not resolve dns names
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
NM seems completely broken in 16.10.
I use NM, wifi and several VPN connections.
Expected behaviour:
1. Connect NM to default wlan -> name resolution works without interuption
and permanently
2. Connection to Cisco Anyconnect (via openconnect) -> DNS servers sent via
DHCP should be added to the resolver list, name resolution should work in
destination network, routes adjusted accordingly
3. Connect NM to foreign network (WPA2) -> DNS resolution sent via DHCP
should be taken as default
Current behaviour:
NM starts dnsmasq by default (I commented the start line to fix
issues). DNS resolution stops after some minutes.
Removing dnsmasq fron NetworkManager.conf (as I did) allows for name
resolution except for web browsers (neither Firefox nor Chromium use
the systemd.resolver).
5 minutes of inactivity on the network suffice for the name resolution
to stop working. Have to reestablish network connection (sudo
resolveconf -u does not work).
This violates expectation 1
NM connects via openconnect. In the settings I added additional DNS
servers and domain searches. They are ignored by dnsmasq. Name
resolution does not work.
*Worksaround* -> enter IP-addresses in /etc/hosts.
dig @server-ip returns the correct IP address for target services but
Firefox and Chromium do not utilize these services. dnsmasq does not
return the correct address.
This violates expectation 2
Entering a foreign but known network, DNS resolution stops after a
while (5 minutes inactivity suffice).
Summarizing:
a. DNS resolution using VPN connections does not work (I use openvpn,
openconnect and pptp).
b. dnsmasq does not resolve dns names correctly in wlan situations
c. dnsmasq conflicts with systemd.resolver
d. Firefox and Chromium ignore systemd.resolver
e. removing dnsmasq from NetworkManager.conf releaves the issue a little
(resolution drop-outs do not occur so frequently)
Comparison to plain Debian demonstrated that Debian does not start
dnsmasq. This led to the elimination of my dns=dnsmaq line in
NetworkManager.conf
Comparison to Raspian demonstrated that Raspian uses wpa_supplicant to
control dns name resolution. I have not tried this setup in Ubuntu
yet.
