zenoss.core host lookups dont work

I have configured a new zenoss 5 core instance to run in my control center, and I can perform host name lookups from the host server, however I cannot resolve any DNS lookups from within the zenoss web UI. Anyone have any ideas as to why the core instance isn't using the host servers DNS lookup

By default docker uses dnsmasq to relay the DNS requests to the servers listed on the host. I found this a bit iffy as it didn't cover some of my more advanced DNS config.

You can change the way docker does DNS on centos via
/etc/sysconfig/docker

By default it will have a single entry pointing at the host server

--dns=172.17.42.1

You can either edit this and change it your DNS servers or remove the entry completely and docker will copy your /etc/resolve.conf to each of the containers.

See https://docs.docker.com/articles/networking/#dns
