[Bug 2120756] [NEW] DNS problems with borgbackup after systemd update

 

Public bug reported:

After updating from systemd 255.4-1ubuntu8.8 to 255.4-1ubuntu8.10, I can
no longer run borg backup on my host:

----
Remote: ssh: Could not resolve hostname ****: Temporary failure in name resolution
----

However, if I do SSH directly, it works as it should.

I have docker installed on this machine.

A tcpdump revealed, that borg backup was not using 127.0.0.53 (systemd)
DNS, but 127.0.0.11 DNS server from docker (which was not responding).

Note: I hope that this is correct, as I have already downgraded systemd
back to version 255.4-1ubuntu8.8. I'm not 100% sure about the addresses
being used, but I'm sure that a different IP starting with 127.0.0.x was
used and it did not respond to the queries. Funny enough, when I started
the borg process using strace, it worked as well.

After a systemd downgrade back to 255.4-1ubuntu8.8, the problem no
longer occurs.
