KVM Server

Cha0s_B0y · 12-07-2019, 11:01 AM

Hello, A friend of mine and I bought a Server (KVM Debian 9) and apt update etc ain't working.

Our host told us to add 8.8.8.8 and 1.1.1.1 to the resolv.conf/interfaces but we don't know as what we need to add it - as dns-nameserver or what option do we need to add it?

(Sorry for my bad english .-.)

My current interfaces looks as following:

Code:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto ens18
iface ens18 inet static
address X.X.X.X
netmask X.X.X.X
gateway X.X.X.X

8.8.8.8 and 1.1.1.1 are DNS servers indeed. Use the dns-nameservers directive for static interface configuration.

The sourceslist data can't be reached - how am I able to fix that?
As I said our host told us to add 8.8.8.8 and 1.1.1.1 to the interfaces but how am I able to add both now?

With the dns-nameservers directive.

If you have added this directive, ensure it is syntactically correct and that you restart the networking service.

I am not sure if Debian does it this way, but it's likely you will find the DNS servers in /etc/resolv.conf after successful configuration.

One should be sufficient, but you can list several:

Code:

dns-nameservers 1.1.1.1 8.8.8.8
