Hi,

personally in 15.10 I have

# Tell any system-wide dnsmasq instance to make sure to bind to interfaces
# instead of listening on 0.0.0.0
# WARNING: changes to this file will get lost if lxc is removed.
bind-interfaces
except-interface=lxcbr0
server=/lxc/10.0.3.1

in /etc/dnsmaq.d/lxc

and it does work:

ping precise-gui.lxc
PING precise-gui.lxc (10.0.3.57) 56(84) bytes of data.

Title:
  Make .lxc domain name resolution easier to discover and enable

Status in lxc package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The lxc package on ubuntu does almost nothing to help a user enable
  DNS resolution for containers via dnsmaq, let alone discover that it
  is possible. How about enabling it by default? I think all it would
  take is adding server=/lxc/10.0.3.1 to a file in
  /etc/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.d/ and uncommenting LXC_DOMAIN="lxc" in
  /etc/default/lxc-net.

  Even if there's a good reason not to enable this by default, shouldn't
  it at least be clearly documented someplace obvious instead of buried
  in a system config file with a misleading comment that mentions the
  wrong dnsmasq file to edit? (The one currently mentioned by
  /etc/default/lxc-net does nothing on ubuntu desktop systems, because
  ubuntu's NetworkManager starts dnsmasq with a special config
  directory.)
