I can confirm this is still an issue with ubuntu 18.04. I have both the
network-manager-openvpn and network-manager-openvpn-gnome. The DNS
issues are still an issue on the client. I know this isn't my openvpn
server (running on pfsense) or config files as the same config files on
Windows and MACOS work and connect with no issues. This needs to be
fixed since, I, the IT guy use Ubuntu 18.04, lol.
Thanks,
Carlos

Title:
Ubuntu 18.04 Network-Manager-OpenVPN won't connected, worked in 17.10,
17.04
Status in network-manager-openvpn package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Under Kubuntu 18.04 and Ubuntu 18.04 (both installed multiboot on a
Thinkpad X230T), OpenVPN won't connect to a host that worked under
Kubuntu 17.10 and 17.04. This host continues to be accessible under
Deepin Linux.
Here is a log from today's attempt on Kubuntu 18.04.
