I have a PC with Arch Linux (4.7.2-1-ARCH) on it. The PC uses DHCP to get its IP, but uses a different DNS Server that i configured via systemd-resolved. When I use the dig command with a domain the has a CNAME record, the associated A record is missing. If I use dig with the server manualy configured the A record is there. Any ideas why the systemd-resolved changes the dns records?

If you need any additional infos let me know.

Here is my network (systemd-networkd) configuration

[Match]
Name=ens18

[Network]
DNS=10.0.0.18
DHCP=ipv4

[DHCPv4]
UseHostname=false
UseDNS=false

resolv.conf:

# This is a static resolv.conf file for connecting local clients to
# systemd-resolved via its DNS stub listener on 127.0.0.53.
#
# Third party programs must not access this file directly, but only through the
# symlink at /etc/resolv.conf. To manage resolv.conf(5) in a different way,
# replace this symlink by a static file or a different symlink.
#
# See systemd-resolved.service(8) for details about the supported modes of
# operation for /etc/resolv.conf.

nameserver 127.0.0.53

  • Many people will recognize the question and ignore it to avoid wasting time trying to help you since you'll just remove it like you did last night. Now take good note that you are not asking for the A record. Try dig a api.pushbullet.com to get it. Commented Sep 11, 2016 at 0:39
  • @JuliePelletier what are you talking about. I did not remove anything. The output of dig command should be the same.

Output of the dig command is different because it was a different command.

$ dig api.pushbullet.com @127.0.0.1

  • That doesn't show the A record. You'd need to ask for it! Commented Sep 11, 2016 at 14:13
