Ubuntu 14.04 Server edition only displays "nameserver 127.0.0.1" in "/etc/resolv.conf" on each reboot if the dns-nameservers in "/etc/network/interfaces" contains 127.0.0.1 and some other DNS such as Google Public DNS.

On /etc/network/interfaces I set as follows:

dns-nameservers 127.0.0.1 8.8.8.8

But after a reboot, /etc/resolv.conf gives me this:

nameserver 127.0.0.1

Shouldn't the "nameserver 8.8.8.8" listed in the /etc/resolv.conf too?

Thanks in advanced.
