if you want to use dns in docker use dns-gen follow these simple steps by this step you can assign host name to multi docker containers. 1. First know your docker IP by Publishing this command

/sbin/ifconfig docker0 | grep "inet" | head -n1 | awk '{ print $2}' | cut -d: -f2

2. now note the output ip and time to start dns-gen container(ps: don't forget to add docker ip you get by issuing above command before :53:53)

docker run --detach \ --name dns-gen \ --publish dockerip:53:53/udp \ --volume /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \ jderusse/dns-gen

3. Last thing: Register you new DnsServer in you resolv.conf

echo "nameserver dockerip" | sudo tee --append /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head sudo resolvconf -u

Now you should be able to access your docker container in browser :- http://containername.docker

Hope it works.. Thanks..
