/etc/resolvconf/interface-order is only supposed to determine the order in which interfaces are preferred as sources of DNS configuration, it should certainly not cause the DNS servers for an interface to be ignored completely. Please attach your full /etc/network/interfaces, as well as the contents of the /run/resolvconf directory (in particular, the /run/resolvconf/interface subdirectory).
** Changed in: resolvconf (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to resolvconf in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1384394 Title: /etc/network/interfaces: "dns-nameservers" entries for bridge "br*" interfaces are ignored i.e. they are not listed in "/etc/resolv.conf" when invoking "ifup" command Status in “resolvconf” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS Release: 14.04 apt-cache policy resolvconf resolvconf: Installed: 1.69ubuntu1.1 Candidate: 1.69ubuntu1.1 Version table: *** 1.69ubuntu1.1 0 500 http://ch.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1.69ubuntu1 0 500 http://ch.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages DESCRIPTION: network-manager: My "eth0" and "wlan0" cards are managed by the network-manager and this works fine. /etc/network/interfaces: My 2 bridges "br0" and "br1" are managed in "/etc/network/interfaces" as follows: ... iface br0 inet static address 192.168.10.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 dns-nameservers 192.168.10.2 bridge_ports none bridge_stp off bridge_fd 0 bridge_maxwait 0 iface br1 inet static address 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 dns-nameservers 192.168.0.2 bridge_ports none bridge_stp off bridge_fd 0 bridge_maxwait 0 ... When I now bring up the bridge interfaces using: sudo ifup br0 br1 Then they show up fine in "ifconfig". BUT "dns-nameservers 192.168.10.2" and "dns-nameservers 192.168.0.2" DO NOT show up in "/etc/resolv.conf" WORKAROUND: Until this has been fixed the following workaround works fine for me: sudo vi /etc/resolvconf/interface-order #Add the following entry (this entry can be put on any line BUT it has to come before the last entry "*"): ... br* ... * PS: Based on the workaround in "/etc/resolvconf/interface-order" I think the issue is in package "resolvconf" otherwise I would have reported the error against the "ifupdown scripts".
