DNS resolution in LXC container


Hi all,
I'm using srsLTE-emane (https://github.com/adjacentlink/srsLTE-emane), an open source software that emulates LTE Network, and I have a problem with DNS resolution in LXC container.

I'm running a demonstration (found on https://github.com/adjacentlink/emane-model-lte.git) made by three containers: ue-02 (the mobile phone), enb-21 (the radio base station) and epc-01 (the core network of LTE). I'm able to ping any IP address from ue-02 (for example 104.83.108.242):

Code:
root@ue-02:~# ping 104.83.108.242 -c 5
PING 104.83.108.242 (104.83.108.242) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 104.83.108.242: icmp_seq=1 ttl=50 time=96.8 ms
64 bytes from 104.83.108.242: icmp_seq=2 ttl=50 time=95.1 ms
64 bytes from 104.83.108.242: icmp_seq=3 ttl=50 time=94.5 ms
64 bytes from 104.83.108.242: icmp_seq=4 ttl=50 time=93.0 ms
64 bytes from 104.83.108.242: icmp_seq=5 ttl=50 time=91.8 ms
I'm not able to activate the DNS resolution (where www.repubblica.it is the internet site related to 104.83.108.242):

Code:
root@ue-02:~# nslookup www.repubblica.it
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
Code:
root@ue-02:~# LC_ALL=C ping www.repubblica.it
ping: www.repubblica.it: Name or service not known
I have read the instructions to modify the file resolv.conf, but these containers don't have this file: these are a bit different from classical LXC containers. The unique configuration file is lxc.conf.

lxc.conf:
Code:
lxc.uts.name=ue-02
lxc.net.0.type=veth
lxc.net.0.name=backchan0
lxc.net.0.flags=up
lxc.net.0.link=letce0
lxc.net.0.ipv4.address=10.88.1.2/24
lxc.net.0.veth.pair=aveth.3.0
lxc.net.1.type = empty
lxc.net.1.flags=up

lxc.console.path = none
lxc.tty.max = 1
lxc.pty.max = 128
lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = a
lxc.mount.auto = proc sys cgroup


lxc.autodev = 1
lxc.hook.autodev = /usr/share/emane-model-lte/demo/two_ues/ue-02/lxc.hook.autodev.sh
lxc.apparmor.profile = unconfined
the only differences with lxc.conf of the other two containers are in the name and in the IP addresses.

Someone could help me?

Thank you very much!!

Andrea

Do you have LXC configuration files in /etc/dnsmasq.d-available ??

I think modifying them with the line "dhcp-option=<your name server>" should work.

Hi Rick! Thank you for your answer!!
Yes, I have found the file. What should I use in "your name server"? I have tried
Code:
dhcp-option=option:dns-server,8.8.8.8
and
Code:
dhcp-option=option:dns-server,0.0.0.0,8.8.8.8
but these don't work...

Andrea

I have solved the problem, typing

Code:
echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" | sudo tee -a /etc/resolv.conf
