Subject: Requirement for proper DNS resolving / source port = 0
Hi,
I am setting up an embedded system, and consider that I have not set up
anything other then I have explicitly described.
I am using a Linux kernel 3.14.2, and have set up kernel autoconfiguration
(ip=dhcp). That having said, I am able to ping external hosts using
busybox.
My current problem is that I am unable to resolve hostnames in my system.
The file /etc/resolv.conf is in place, and I am observing outgoing DNS
requests. The strange thing about them is that the source port is actually
0, not illegal, but it isn't getting any replies.
I have tried to add /etc/hosts and /etc/services. I am able to ping
localhost, which does resolve to an IP address using the entry from
/etc/hosts.
Is this a bad kernel configuration? Does anyone have a hint where to look
for?
My guess it is related to here... and I guess it is expecting udp port
randomization, which does not seem to happen. Any clues?
