[Bug libc/12923] New: Comments in /etc/resolv.conf starting in the middle of a line are interpreted


http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12923

           Summary: Comments in /etc/resolv.conf starting in the middle of
                    a line are interpreted
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.14
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
        AssignedTo: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
        ReportedBy: markus.gagliardi@paytec.ch


Example:

With the following line in /etc/resolv.conf, libc tries to resolv
myhost.somedomain.ch.by if the DNS server is not available during the try on
myhost.somedomain.ch. It even succeeds, since ch.by resolves everything with
this suffix..

search somedomain.ch # Generated by udhcpc eth0

Best regards
Markus
