This is still a problem in 18.04. Like the OP, I have localhosts on my LAN, but have no local domain configured. I had to disable systemd- resolved on each of my LXC containers. What's worse, resolvconf creates an empty /etc/resolv.conf file. So I had to create resolv.conf by hand and point to DNS. Again, on each of my containers.
This is a major regression. If the systemd-resolved is to be kept, at least have some decency to explicitly note in 18.04 LTS release notes that local hostname resolution requires local domain to be configured for name resolution to work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1699660 Title: systemd-resolve breaks resolution of local network hostnames Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After upgrading to Ubuntu 17.04 (zesty), resolution of my local network's host names is completely broken. Apparently the upgrade replaced my existing resolver with systemd-resolve, which deliberately refuses to pass "single-label" domain names to my domain name server. That is the server where all my network's host names are kept, so I can no longer resolve any of them. Apparently, this is yet another example of Poettering's upstream decisions causing denial of service to people who have been saddled with his malware. https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/2514#issuecomment-179203186 Would someone sensible please put a stop to this forced breakage during upgrade, and advise on how to fix it now that the damage has been done?
