Public bug reported: Ubuntu 17.10 comes with systemd-resolved as the default local resolver.
When querying the PTR record of any local IP address it returns only the hostname (without domain) and does not forward the query to the available nameservers. This results in unwanted results. How do I change that behaviours without disabling and masking systemd- resolved and manually putting the nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf? Example: root@files05:~# host 192.168.48.115 115.48.168.192.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer files05. root@files05:~# host 192.168.48.116 116.48.168.192.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer files06.example.net. root@files05:~# host 192.168.48.120 120.48.168.192.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer files05. root@files05:~# host 192.168.48.120 192.168.48.2 Using domain server: Name: 192.168.48.2 Address: 192.168.48.2#53 Aliases: 120.48.168.192.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer fileserv.example.net. ** Affects: systemd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- 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/1737250 Title: systemd-resolved returns only short hostname when PTR record of local IP is requested Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Ubuntu 17.10 comes with systemd-resolved as the default local resolver.
