Comment 2 for bug 389006

I believe I am experiencing this issue as well. My configuration is as follows:

Fresh Jaunty install on my laptop, with wireless interface connected to internet and wired interface connected to LAN.

Older Jaunty install (upgraded from ?, probably Feisty) on desktop, wired interface connected to LAN.

Laptop is configured via network-manager to share wireless internet to LAN. Both machines can ping each other and connect via SSH, etc. Desktop machine can reach internet sites by IP. However, Desktop machine will not resolve DNS names. Attempting to resolve google.com in nslookup results in the following:

> google.com
Server: 10.42.43.1
Address: 10.42.43.1#53

** server can't find google.com: REFUSED

As in the initial report, I have worked around this for now by manually editing resolv.conf on the desktop to match the laptop.

As nmap from the desktop shows that port 53 is accessible on the laptop, I believe this is an issue with my dnsmasq configurating, which I haven't dove in to yet. It's odd, as this initially worked, and I haven't changed any configuration. It may have stopped working after post-installation updates on the laptop, I'm not certain about the timing.

I will examine my logs and dnsmasq config and report any additional weirdness.
