Describe the problem

I connected a Linux-Box running Proxmox via Netbird. That is working fine.
On the machine a LX-Container is running Paperless NGX. After a while I noticed that the email automation (fetiching via Imap) is not working any more.

The Web-Interface of this Container is available via NetBird as a resource routed via one of my Proxmox hosts (not only the one it is running on)

The Container imports the resolv.conf from the host:

--- BEGIN PVE ---

search netbird.cloud
nameserver 100.119.#.#

--- END PVE ---

The container cannot reliably resolve public IP Adresses. Name resolving times out:

;; communications error to 100.119.#.##53: timed out
;; communications error to 100.119.#.##53: timed out
;; no servers could be reached

That's unexpected. What's going on here? Is it cool to replace DNS settings on the peers?

Are you using NetBird Cloud?

NetBird Cloud

NetBird version

0.60.2 on Debian 12

Is any other VPN software installed?

no
