Title: Resolver ignores ndots option Status in glibc package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in glibc package in Arch Linux: New Bug description: Regardless of ndots option in /etc/resolv.conf, when NXDOMAIN is returned from the DNS server then resolver always try another attempt with the original name extended by what is in search option. For example, if you're looking for very.long.url.nowhere and there is a line "search ubuntu.com" in resolv.conf (or no such line at all, which gives out "search mydomain.tld" by default) you will get addres of server very.long.url.nowhere.ubuntu.com if such exists. It is incorrect, it should occurs only for urls having less that ndots option dots in its name. First mentioned there https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/401202 but still not fixed. lsb_release: Description: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS Release: 14.04 --- AlsaDevices: total 0 crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 1 Jun 3 20:17 seq crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 33 Jun 3 20:17 timer AplayDevices: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.11 Architecture: i386 ArecordDevices: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory AudioDevicesInUse: Error: command ['fuser', '-v', '/dev/snd/seq', '/dev/snd/timer'] failed with exit code 1: CRDA: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 IwConfig: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory Lsusb: Error: command ['lsusb'] failed with exit code 1: unable to initialize libusb: -99 MachineType: Bochs Bochs Package: linux (not installed) PciMultimedia: ProcFB: ProcKernelCmdLine: root=LABEL=DOROOT ro ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.8.0-19.30-generic 3.8.8 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-3.8.0-19-generic N/A linux-backports-modules-3.8.0-19-generic N/A linux-firmware N/A RfKill: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory Tags: trusty Uname: Linux 3.8.0-19-generic i686 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to trusty on 2015-06-03 (21 days ago) UserGroups: WifiSyslog: _MarkForUpload: True dmi.bios.date: 01/01/2007 dmi.bios.vendor: Bochs dmi.bios.version: Bochs dmi.chassis.type: 1 dmi.chassis.vendor: Bochs dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnBochs:bvrBochs:bd01/01/2007:svnBochs:pnBochs:pvr:cvnBochs:ct1:cvr: dmi.product.name: Bochs dmi.sys.vendor: Bochs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/+bug/1468836/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
