As title suggests, I upgrade to 14.04. After that browser informed:

...can't find the server at "host name"...

So the name server seems not to work. How should I fix the problem?

  1. Edit /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head:

    sudo nano /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head
    
  2. Add the following line to the top of the file:

    nameserver 193.229.0.40
    
  3. Save the file:

    CTRL + X

  4. Restart your network (or reboot your pc):

    sudo service networking restart

  • Before making this change, I restarted the computer and tried to load some web page. Everything worked fine. So the information has not disappeared.

  • Before making this permanent change, I tried to restart my network (as stated above). Result was stop: job failed while stopping start: job is already running networking
