I tried with a simple desktop install of Ubuntu Precise instead of a minimal install with added packages. This time, dnsmasq is running. So installing ubuntu-desktop with recommended packages is not the same as installing from the default install image. Who knew? Tried ping and ping6 for crossroads.infrahip.net. Anyway, could not reproduce. At least yet. It's getting late and I'm giving up for today. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of HIPL core team, which is subscribed to HIPL. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1006743 Title: DNS proxy on Ubuntu precise Status in Host Identity Protocol for Linux: New Bug description: DNS proxy does not work in Ubuntu precise because dnsmasq has mandatory and has been integrated in rather interesting way.
