Public bug reported: Since upgrade to 17.04/17.10 I cannot reach any server within my university domain over LAN:
>From within the university network: ping webmail.wur.nl ping: webmail.wur.nl: Name or service not known >From outside: ping webmail.wur.nl PING webmail.wur.nl (137.224.252.102) 56(84) bytes of data. This is caused by the entry of the local host as nameserver in resolf.conf as "nameserver 127.0.1.1". When this line is manually removed the server is reached. However, NetworkManager persistently restores the line to /etc/resolf.conf. This can be avoided by stopping NetworkManager, adding dns=none to the [main] section to /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf and then restarting NetworkManager. NetworkManager should not add the line nameserver 127.0.1.1 to resolv.conf on default, as this almost surely causes problems.
