Docker has no DNS resolution bridge mode


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

 

Just hitting a whole bunch of dead ends.

I've googled and found some partial answers, but they don't relate, so asking here optimistically...

Using docker with host mode = AOK, the docker absorbs the /etc/resolv.conf config from the unraid host. 1.1.1.1 etc. and can resolve names.

However - same docker using a vlan via bridged network interface br0:333 (vlan id 333) has only one entry in the /etc/resolv.conf file of 127.0.0.11

That doesn't resolve, but traffic flow is fine - ping works to the outside world.

 

I can add /etc/hosts entries & that's sort of ok until it's restarted! (really very not right!)

Docker.com recommends using --dns=1.1.1.1 as a command line "flag", but I can't relate that to the unraid world.

Can't find the original dockerfile to edit it, and trying to add "variable" to the docker edit screen of "dns" value "1.1.1.1" also doesn't work.

 

Clearly there's a sort of bug thing here, and I have failed to find an adequate workaround.

Suggestions welcome!

Thanks in advance.

 

(btw - I have 3 unraid servers - love them to death, not criticising!)

Extra parameters line (switch to advanced view when editing)

Well, that was interesting, you're most helpful, thanks, much appreciated...(who noticed the "advanced" button before?!)(excellent!)

The interesting part is - it didn't work - but in an interesting way...

Added command line options but only some of them worked.

Tried using the recommended syntax & it didn't work, nothing made it into the resolv.conf file.

Then I tried more options like this line:

--dns=10.0.0.10 --dns=10.0.0.11 --dns-search=example.com

The dns values did NOT make it into the resolv.conf, but the dns-search value DID get propagated, how interesting...

However, I don't know what that means or how to fix it, but it's interesting!

Where's the "dockerfile" with the "from" and the 'script' to make stuff get installed etc?

 

Checking further, ifconfig confirms it's on the right interface, with correct ip-addr inherited from host, and can ping inside & outside world.

Also - not sure if it's important (as it's a tiny docker) there's no directory in /mnt/user/appdata - maybe not needed as it has no file activities.

 

Ideally, of course, I'd prefer to understand how to debug this myself, if poss, (teach a man to fish etc). I would quite like to make some of my own dockers rather than relying on others...

Thanks

OOh - just found this how-to-find-out-a-bit-more-about-the-network command (from the unraid CLI):

docker network inspect br0.333
[
    {
        "Name": "br0.333",
        "Id": "c71ca99f22b0b386afe6f48b269c6f61c7fd88f4905a1721a3b20ad585f35c54",
        "Created": "2019-07-07T23:02:56.253031071+01:00",
        "Scope": "local",
        "Driver": "macvlan",
        "EnableIPv6": false,
        "IPAM": {
            "Driver": "default",
            "Options": {},
            "Config": [
                {
                    "Subnet": "192.168.200.0/24",
                    "AuxiliaryAddresses": {
                        "server": "192.168.200.3"
                    }
                }
            ]
        },
        "Internal": false,
        "Attachable": false,
        "Ingress": false,
        "ConfigFrom": {
            "Network": ""
        },
        "ConfigOnly": false,
        "Containers": {
            "0df55d7fe98fe57ecd1b5c9816f4bb6075975a0a795e0d9272d038d60005efa2": {
                "Name": "Cloudflare-DDNS",
                "EndpointID": "1a8a636fb7b8a9ef5d23b3fb3cc5590b8e8ba344897433a3b7e689747ae98141",
                "MacAddress": "02:42:c0:a8:c8:02",
                "IPv4Address": "192.168.200.2/24",
                "IPv6Address": ""
            }
        },
        "Options": {
            "parent": "br0.333"
        },
        "Labels": {}
    }
]

 

Any idea where the config for this is - maybe I can force-feed the dns servers from here?

No probably not, I'm just guessing really!

 

TIA
