+By default, VMs and LXC containers get their DNS configuration from `/etc/resolv.conf` on the Proxmox host.
+Therefore, use the `10.10.10.1` IP address of the Proxmox host in `/etc/resolv.conf`, so that VMs and LXC containers get a configuration that works for them.
+(For example, if you use `127.0.0.1`, then VMs and LXC containers try to resolve DNS names using `127.0.0.1`, which does not work.)

Reboot to verify that everything applies correctly.
Verify DNS configuration by running `host some.domain.you.know`.
