This has been discussed before. I definately want to make things work as cleanly as possible out of the box. There are a few problems with doing htis though, 1) networkmanager isn't the only place we'd need to do this (most "serious" lxc hosts probably don't run networkmanager), 2) if we do this automatically then changes made to /etc/default/lxc-net may start to require more baroque changes elsewhere. We almost want a simple tool to administer all the network bits at this point.
Another possiblity is to leave fixing this to lxd. ** Changed in: lxc (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to lxc in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1389954 Title: Make .lxc domain name resolution easier to discover and enable Status in lxc package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The lxc package on ubuntu does almost nothing to help a user enable DNS resolution for containers via dnsmaq, let alone discover that it is possible. How about enabling it by default? I think all it would take is adding server=/lxc/10.0.3.1 to a file in /etc/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.d/ and uncommenting LXC_DOMAIN="lxc" in /etc/default/lxc-net. Even if there's a good reason not to enable this by default, shouldn't it at least be clearly documented someplace obvious instead of buried in a system config file with a misleading comment that mentions the wrong dnsmasq file to edit? (The one currently mentioned by /etc/default/lxc-net does nothing on ubuntu desktop systems, because ubuntu's NetworkManager starts dnsmasq with a special config directory.)
