Cluster information:

Kubernetes version: v1.23.1
Cloud being used: bare-metal
Installation method: kubeadm
Host OS: Ubuntu 20.04
CNI and version: Flannel
CRI and version: cri-o v1.23.1

Hi Everybody,

I am having some strange DNS issues with a fresh cluster setup.
I am not able to resolve pods by their full FQDN, e.g. postgres.namespace.svc.cluster.local.
Everything is working just fine if I am not querying the whole FQDN, like postgres.namespace or postgres.namespace.svc.

Below are some example queries and their result:


nslookup kube-dns.kube-system.svc

Server:         10.96.0.10
Address:        10.96.0.10#53

Name:   kube-dns.kube-system.svc.cluster.local
Address: 10.96.0.10


nslookup kube-dns.kube-system.svc.cluster.local
Server:         10.96.0.10
Address:        10.96.0.10#53

** server can't find kube-dns.kube-system.svc.cluster.local.localdomain.lan: SERVFAIL

command terminated with exit code 1

As you can see in the second dns response, localdomain.lan was appended;
localdomain.lan is my networks local search domain.

Any ideas why this is happening?
Is this expected behaviour?
Thanks in advance!

Could you please paste here the output of:

kubectl get cm coredns -n kube-system -o yaml

Sure, here is the output:
