Package: openvpn
Version: 2.0.9-8
Severity: wishlist
Please add this text to the README.Debian.gz file.
Patch is/should be attached to this bugreport:
Using resolvconf
----------------
Have a look at the shell script /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf
It parses DHCP options from openvpn to update /etc/resolv.conf
To use set as 'up' and 'down' script in your openvpn *.conf:
up /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf
down /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf
You will need to install resolvconf package.
Kind regards
