Package: network-manager
Version: 0.6.5-3
Severity: normal
Hi,
I'm using an openvpn connection to access a certain subnet only.
That VPN connection deliberately doesn't setup a DNS server;
it's just a security measure to provide encrypted access to certain services.
However I can't really use the VPN functionality of network-manager for
that, because it loses my proper DNS entry.
So I'm connected to a wired ethernet via
Network-Manager. /etc/resolv.conf is setup correctly, and I have working
DNS. After connecting to the VPN (which is only used for a /24 network),
the file contains only
--
# generated by NetworkManager, do not edit!
--
Instead of writing an empty file, it should either merge the settings
when connected to a VPN (especially if it's not setting up a new default
route!) or at least noticing that it didn't get any useful data from the
VPN connection and then stick to the previous configuration...

Hi,
this bug has already been reported against network-manager-openvpn:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=428252
As this bug report adds no additional information, I'm closing it,
instead of merging.
Cheers,
Michael
