Apparently that doesn't work. I modified the host's dhclient.conf to add: prepend domain-name-servers 192.168.122.1;
Such that /etc/resolv.conf now contains: nameserver 192.168.122.1 nameserver 10.0.1.1 dnsmasq seems to be running: 1366 dnsmasq --strict-order --bind-interfaces --pid- file=/var/run/libvirt/network/default.pid --conf-file= --except- interface lo --listen-address 192.168.122.1 --dhcp-range 192.168.122.2,192.168.122.254 --dhcp-lease-max=253 --dhcp-no-override Interestingly, seems like there's no route to the 192.168.122.0 network on the host, so maybe something is broken on my side: route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 10.0.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 virbr0 0.0.0.0 10.0.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 U 1004 0 0 virbr0 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to lxc in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/824167 Title: wishlist: connect to lxc container by name using avahi To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/824167/+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
