Comment 19 for bug 1163147

Thomas, sorry for the slow response, I had a family issue come up.

I believe I followed the directions in comment #12 and when I rebooted, I found myself without any working DNS at all -- no Internet hosts, no LAN hosts, no VM guests.

I didn't troubleshoot too far because of your additional advice in comment #16 -- which, again, I think I followed, and also does not work. I could not resolve Internet hosts, LAN hosts. (I must admit I haven't yet tried VM guests.)

root@hunt:~# netstat -nlp | grep :53

root@hunt:~# ps auxw | grep dnsmasq
118 1966 0.0 0.0 26080 996 ? S 18:45 0:00 /usr/sbin/dnsmasq --conf-file=/var/lib/libvirt/dnsmasq/default.conf
root@hunt:~# getent passwd 118
libvirt-dnsmasq:x:118:127:Libvirt Dnsmasq,,,:/var/lib/libvirt/dnsmasq:/bin/false

I don't understand at all where this dnsmasq is being started from, because the --conf-file in the /etc/init/lxc-net is left blank. There are no other instances of 'dnsmasq' in /etc/init/* or /etc/init.d/*.

I've attached the files I recall modifying.
