Package: ppp Version: 2.4.4b1-1 Severity: normal
Hello, apparently, pppd sets the environment variable USEPEERDNS regardless of the option 'usepeerdns' being set or unset in a peer's configuration file. I have "/usr/bin/pppd call mypeer" and the usual settings, except that I commented out usepeerdns in the peer's configuration file, but my own nameserver settings in /etc/resolv.conf were overwritten with the peer-supplied nameservers nonetheless. This prevents my own nameserver settings from taking effect (unless I fix it up later in the process which should not be neccessary).
