-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi everyone, maybe this is an old fart, but I cant get it to work. I am running libvirt on a laptop, where a dnsmasq is already running to delegate dns info for my local (not-public) network. My resolv.conf (on the host) lists the system-dnsmasq as first server. I had to set the listen-adress for the system-dnsmasq to 127.0.0.1 and set bind-interfaces, to stop if from binding to all interfaces and overriding the libvirtd-dnsmasq, which also has dhcp enabled. Now, how can I tell the libvirtd-dnsmasq, to use the system-dnsmasq as first nameserver? I found lots of pages when searching for "libvirt dns", but all of them only show the dhcp-part of the network's xml file: http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/VirtualNetworking#DNS_.26_DHCP > <ip address="192.168.122.1" netmask="255.255.255.0"> <dhcp> <range > start="192.168.122.100" end="192.168.122.254" /> <host > mac="00:16:3e:e2:ed" name="foo.example.com" ip="192.168.122.10" /> > </dhcp> </ip> One possible workaround: My system-dnsmasq reads /etc/hosts_whatever, and apparently the libvirtd-dnsmasq reads var/lib/libvirt/dnsmasq/NETWORK_NAME.addnhosts. I could copy my hosts_whatever in that place, but I had to configure the libvirtd-dnsmasq what my local domains are. Which brings me to the next question: How to set the addn-hosts= for the libvirtd-dnsmasq in the xml file?
