I am connecting n810 to my home LAN. udhcpc correctly creates /tmp/resolv.conf.wlan0 with 2 lines:

domain mydomain.mycountry
nameserver 192.168.7.1

Obviously, dnsmasq is using that file - all fully qualified host names are correctly resolved using my local nameserver. But if I give short name myhost, I am getting error, it does not try myhost.mydomain.mycountry.

Is there any way to make dnsmasq use "domain" line?

Thanks.

I was having the same issue with my N800. Seems this is a bug going back some time.

https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=995

The workaround in the last post does solve the issue for me. See below;

If your network DNS server is configured properly with your domain name and
with your local machines names (either manually or via DHCP), commenting the
option "domain-needed" in /etc/dnsmasq.conf should fix this bug.
Hope that helps.

thanks for pointing me to that bug. Unfortunately my dnsmasq.conf does not have domain-needed option as it is - so there is nothing to comment. So this workaround is not for me
