Dimitri, thank you for the information. Now, as I am not very familiar with the systemd nor the dns setup, I would be happy if you could give me advice how to proceed on this issue. The status of my setup is as follows. I have installed all the latest packages of artful aardvark, also from proposed repo. Network: I have now installed systemd 233-5ubuntu1. Like I wrote, if I install dnsutils and bind9-host, I get no working dns (not even after several reboots). But, if I install bind9, the dns is working (after one reboot). This means already, I suppose, I do not have systemd-resolved working. My setup is using bind9 dns server instead. Here is the output of systemd-resolve --status: Failed to get global data: Unit dbus-org.freedesktop.resolve1.service not found. Here is the output of systemctl status systemd-journald.service: ● systemd-journald.service - Journal Service Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/systemd-journald.service; static; vendor preset: enabled) Active: active (running) since Wed 2017-04-26 09:59:31 EEST; 18min ago Docs: man:systemd-journald.service(8) man:journald.conf(5) Main PID: 301 (systemd-journal) Status: "Processing requests..."

Also how do I get the journal logs? Runtime journal (/run/log/journal/bd732b34a1caf7156751544d541ed208) is 8.0M, so it is a very big file indeed.
