How can I refresh resolv.conf after changing the resolv options in the interfaces file?

After bringing up a dhcp controlled instance in AWS I have made changes to the /etc/network/interfaces file for custom nameserver and DNS search strings:



auto lo

auto eth0

iface lo inet loopback

dns-nameservers 1.1.1.1 9.9.9.9

dns-search flapjacks.io flapjacks.net



iface eth0 inet dhcp


I was hoping to be able to restart a service to get resolv.conf to reflect these changes, but I do not know the service to restart... the changes do show up after reboot however. Does anyone know what service should update this?






networking server dns resolv.conf

          I suggest that you try:



          sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup -v eth0


          The -v for verbose should produce sufficient outptut to see that the process completed successfully.

          • Does resolv.conf contain 127.0.0.xx suggesting that dnsmasq is running? What does this report? sudo systemd-resolve --status It should show the DNS naeservers to be used in absence of a cached lookup previously supplied by dnsmasq. I doubt that you really want to bypass or disable dnsmasq.

          Is it possible to collect Nectar points via Trainline?

GWR, SWR, LNER and Virgin Trains allow to collect Nectar points and I have already linked a card to my GWR account. A friend suggested me to use Trainline App, because it can search for bus tickets either. I had a look at the application, but could not see any option for Nectar.
