Public bug reported:
I am running a fresh install of Ubuntu Desktop 17.10 on a Dell XPS 15 9560
laptop.
I'm using an external Thunderbolt dock to connect to wired Ethernet.
I have additionally installed openssh-server on the system.
When I boot the system as normal, NetworkManager ends up creating a resolv.conf
file that contains "nameserver 127.0.1.1"
However, with this file, DNS doesn't work -- "ping www.google.com" doesn't
resolve, web pages don't resolve, ubuntu update doesn't find servers, and so
forth.
If I do the following, the system works fine:
"mv /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf.old"
"echo 'nameserver 8.8.8.8' > /etc/resolv.conf"
But I have to re-do this every time I boot.
I have configured manual DNS as 8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4 in the properties for the Wired
network connection.
It also doesn't work if I use the default DHCP servers (Comcast, who poisons
DNS for their customers so I generally don't use that.)
My DHCP server is a MikroTik Routerboard Router/Access point (I'm using wired
Ethernet for now.)
Other wired machines on the same network work fine, including older versions of
Ubuntu with DNS set to 8.8.8.8.
netstat -naplt udp doesn't show anything listening on port 53 locally, I
don't know of that's expected or not for whatever the 127.0.1.1 proxy
is.
