Ubuntu 17.10 - Route complete TLD (*.dev for example) to 127.0.0.1

  • 772

I always used the solutions here, Route complete TLD (*.dev for example) to 127.0.0.1 in my previous Ubuntu setups. But today after upgrading to 17 I am not able to make this work no matter what I try.

I installed all the released updates and bug-fixes. But can't make this work. Have you hit the same problem? I didn't do a single config yet, it's brand new install of Ubuntu.

  • by default dnsmasq was not installed which I installed it and the status of the service is running
  • I tried putting the config on these files /etc/dnsmasq.conf and also tried /etc/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.d/dev-tld but none worked
  • I did try these commands in both files address=/dev/127.0.0.1 , address=/.dev/127.0.0.1
network-manager

  1. Instead of dnsmasq I went by editing sudo nano ./hosts.

    Inside the file add a line similar to this

    127.0.0.1 foo.dev

    That's it, save the file and enjoy.
