Hi,
we're using the isc-dhcp-server in our enviroment, but since the version 4.3 there is an issue with the domain lookup.
We've defined multiple domains in /etc/hosts e.g ldapm.foss-cloud.int or foss-cloud.org.
The problem is now that we get an "Can't contact LDAP server" error, altough the domains are pointing to 127.0.0.1.
So I've done a tcpdump which shows that the DHCP server tries to make requests to an external ip, which is the A-Record of foss-cloud.org

And this happens altough foss-cloud.org points to 127.0.0.1 in /etc/hosts.
If I now try a domain which points to 127.0.0.1 for example localtest.me, the DHCP server connects without any issues.
Now there is the question how to solve this issue?
