[Bug 1072899] Re: vpn dns server addresses - host lookups fail if first server is not reachable
> I would have expected the DNS lookup to fall back to the second server when it failed to receive a reply from the first server instead of just giving up. What is the output of "cat /etc/resolv.conf"? What happens if you do "ping glenn.kl.imgtec.org"? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dnsmasq in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1072899 Title: vpn dns server addresses - host lookups fail if first server is not reachable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dnsmasq/+bug/1072899/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

[Bug 1072899] Re: vpn dns server addresses - host lookups fail if first server is not reachable
I believe that you might be able to replicate this bug by setting up a vpn in "Automatic (VPN) addresses only" mode and specifying two DNS server addresses (one valid and one not). See attached image for example. ** Attachment added: "snapshot.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dnsmasq/+bug/1072899/+attachment/3419095/+files/snapshot.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dnsmasq in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1072899 Title: vpn dns server addresses - host lookups fail if first server is not reachable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dnsmasq/+bug/1072899/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Yes, it looks as if the problem is that NM is forgetting the second nameserver address. Can you reproduce this malfunction with the Quantal version of network- manager? ** Package changed: dnsmasq (Ubuntu) => network-manager (Ubuntu) ** Summary changed: - vpn dns server addresses - host lookups fail if first server is not reachable + Using NM and dnsmasq, although two nameserver addresses are provided for my VPN, host lookups fail if the first server is not reachable -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dnsmasq in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1072899 Title: Using NM and dnsmasq, although two nameserver addresses are provided for my VPN, host lookups fail if the first server is not reachable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1072899/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
