[Bug 1727237] Re: systemd-resolved is not finding a domain

[Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre]

So, after looking at it more, it seems the issue with Datavalet is due
to EDNS0-enabled queries failing to be captured and rewritten by the
captive portal. It might not in fact be the same issue as for
securelogin.arubanetworks.com, though the wireless hardware comes from
the same manufacturer.

I have a tentative patch ready for secure.datavalet.io; I will adapt it
to work the same way for securelogin.arubanetworks.com, and I'll put all
this in a PPA for testing.

Unfortunately, I haven't found a location that uses
securelogin.arubanetworks.com; so we will need to others (if you
remember where you encountered such a network) to make sure it really
works correctly before uploading to release.

Bug description:
  I have an odd network situation that I have so far managed to narrow
  down to the inability to resolve a domain via systemd-resolved which
  is resolvable with nslookup. If I use nslookup against the two
  nameservers on this network I get answers for the domain, but ping
  says it is unable to resolve the same domain (as do browsers and
  crucially the captive portal mechanism).

  Here are details:

  NSLOOKUP:

  ~$ nslookup securelogin.arubanetworks.com 208.67.220.220
  Server:		208.67.220.220
  Address:	208.67.220.220#53

  Non-authoritative answer:
  Name:	securelogin.arubanetworks.com
  Address: 172.22.240.242

  ~$ nslookup securelogin.arubanetworks.com 208.67.222.222
  Server:		208.67.222.222
  Address:	208.67.222.222#53

  Non-authoritative answer:
  Name:	securelogin.arubanetworks.com
  Address: 172.22.240.242

  
  PING:

  ~$ ping securelogin.arubanetworks.com
  ping: securelogin.arubanetworks.com: Name or service not known
  mark at mark-X1Y2:~$
