[Bug 998712] Re: domain name completion broken when dnsmasq is used

[Reggie McMurtrey]

I'm havin a very simular issue with the new DNS setup in 12.04 on my
laptop.  I run a server at home which runs bind.  The server is setup
correctly, all my machines with 11.04 installed work as expected, but
the machines I have upgraded to 12.04 have issues.  My server provides
name resolution for machines spread out in my house.  A working
/etc/resolve.conf for 11.04 machines looks like:

# Generated by NetworkManager
domain home.lan
search home.lan
nameserver 192.168.99.2                        #my bind server (Provide DNS for local IP's 192.168.99.x )
nameserver 24.177.176.38                     #dns server provided by ISP (Provide DNS for Internet IP's)
nameserver 97.81.22.195                        #dns server provided by ISP (Provide DNS for Internet IP's)


My new machines with 12.04 have a /etc/resolv.conf that looks like:

# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
#     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
nameserver 127.0.0.1
search home.lan

/run/nm-dns-dnsmasq.conf looks like:

server=192.168.99.2
server=24.177.176.38
server=97.81.22.195


All DNS request for outside IP's (none 192.168.x.x) work.  My server has the ip 192.168.99.2 with a FDN of linux.home.lan.    If i do "ping linux" this fails, if i do "ping linux.home.lan" this works.  

if I change my /etc/resolv.conf to the following:


# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
#     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
nameserver 127.0.0.1
nameserver 192.168.99.2
search home.lan


I'm back in buisness.  Let me know what else I can do to help resolv (no pun intended :) this issue
