Confirming the bug and the work around given by claud_j_greengrass.

[Bug 126592] Re: resolv.conf overwritten on dhcp renew when using NetworkManager vpn plugins
This is strongly related to my recently-reported bug #159114, where I originally thought the problem was with KNetworkManager, before spotting that it's delegating to NetworkManager. There was no appropriate supersede line in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf on my system until I added one by hand, along the lines of: supersede domain-name-servers 1.2.3.4,5.6.7.8; I would have liked NetworkManager to put it there for me when I added the DNS servers there, but it didn't! See the referenced bug for more information about my (very simple) configuration. This is using 7.10, by the way. -- resolv.conf overwritten on dhcp renew when using NetworkManager vpn plugins https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/126592 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 126592] Re: resolv.conf overwritten on dhcp renew when using NetworkManager vpn plugins
A not so nice work-around is to edit /sbin/dhclient-script and comment out the line mv -f $new_resolv_conf /etc/resolv.conf then restart networking. Your settings, if any, from /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf will now appear in resolv.conf and dhclient will stop overwriting it. /sbin/dhclient-script appears to be a duplicate of /etc/dhcp3/dhclient- script. Can anyone suggest why there are two copies of this script? This is just a work-around. The real problem appears to be in dhclient and it ignoring the prepend domain-name-servers and supersede domain- name-servers some time after a restart. When first initialized, dhclient will put the correct information into resolv.conf, but later, some 10-15 mintues or so, dhclient looks at your router/cable modem and clobbers resolv.conf with the information for it. -- resolv.conf overwritten on dhcp renew when using NetworkManager vpn plugins https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/126592 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 126592] Re: resolv.conf overwritten on dhcp renew when using NetworkManager vpn plugins
bug confirmed.
as a temp workaround, one can use a script that adds the name servers
back to the /etc/resolv.conf file.
echo nameserver {dns-address1-goes-here} /etc/resolv.conf
echo nameserver {dns-address2-goes-here} /etc/resolv.conf
and run this script using sudo after each time the VPN is connected.
annoying, but works.
