The "-o" option is the same as the strict-order option. The dnsmasq man page says that in strict-order mode dnsmasq uses the order from "/etc/resolv.conf" but we shouldn't take that too literally since dnsmasq obtains nameserver addresses from sources other than /etc/resolv.conf. The dnsmasq process controlled by NetworkManager obtains its nameserver addresses from NetworkManager over D-Bus. I *presume* that nameserver addresses obtained by dnsmasq over D-Bus are checked in the order received in strict-order mode, but I haven't confirmed this.
To see what nameserver addresses NM has sent to nm-dnsmasq, run the nm- tool command and look for the "DNS:" line. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/998712 Title: domain name completion broken when dnsmasq is used To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dnsmasq/+bug/998712/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
