Public bug reported:
Feisty Fawn
#cat /etc/issue
Ubuntu feisty (development branch) \n \l
#uname -a
Linux cdw-ferrari 2.6.20-1-lowlatency #3 SMP PREEMPT Wed Dec 13 17:49:52 UTC
2006 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I connected to a Windows 2003 network and got DHCP from the DC.
# cat /etc/resolv.conf
domain company.local
nameserver 10.0.0.200
# ping www.yahoo.com
unknown host: www.yahoo.com
I threw Wireshark on the interface and found that it was sending a MDNS
query to 224.0.0.251 which is the multicast broadcast address. Since
there is no multicast on this network I couldn't resolve the name.
Thanks,
David Wilde
