Hi,
I have a question regarding assigning DNS Domain and DNS Server by a DHCP Server to a Container.

I want to assign the DNS Server and the DNS Domain by a DHCP Server to several Container.
In every Subnet/vmbridge I have a DHCP Server.
This Server is assigning several options, like DNS Server and DNS Domain.
All the container getting a valid IP Address from the DHCP Server, except DNS Server and DNS Domain.
I can set these values in the DNS (DNS Domain | DNS Server -> use host settings) section of Proxmox of course, but I want it assigned by the DHCP Server.
So, how to tell the Proxmox Server to not provide DNS Domain or DNS Server?
Is there a way to do so?

Thanks in advance
 
If you select DHCP when creating the container then the DHCP supplied DNS Server and Domain are set correctly - you can verify by running cat /var/lib/dhcp/dhclient.eth0.leases inside your container to see the supplied DHCP options
 
Yes, you are right.
I started from scratch and now that I know it should work, it works as expected ;).
Thanks
