[Bug 197156] Re: DNS problems when running VPN connections
It's been a while but I currently have this problem on Maverick (10.10) on my laptop. After using UMTS to get into the internet and then opening an OpenVPN connection to my company my /etc/resolv.conf looks like this: = # Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8) # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN nameserver 139.7.30.126 nameserver 139.7.30.125 nameserver 10.x.y.z search my.company = This leads to DNS problems when I want to resolve something.my.company because the first DNS server of my ISP Vodafone (139.7.30.126) replies with NXDOMAIN and thus I don't get an IP address via DNS. I have resolvconf installed and according to the /etc/resolvconf/interface- order the tun interface should have priority. But apparently the network manager doesn't care about resolvconf. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197156 Title: DNS problems when running VPN connections -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 197156] Re: DNS problems when running VPN connections
in Intrepid Ibex: when I installed kvpnc and vpnc packages, i also had problems with DNS after disconnecting from VPN. There are also related bugs about this error. Nothing else helped me than: sudo apt-get remove --purge vpnc kvpnc + restart , and DNS work normally again . Before this violent action :-) , sudo ifdown eth0 sudo ifup eth0 sudo dhclient eht0 #manual changing of /etc/resolv.conf #PC restarts none of these helped, DNS still resolved only adresses stored in cache (probably) -- DNS problems when running VPN connections https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197156 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Is network manager aware of resolvconf at all? On installation resolvconf hooks itself into /etc/network, /etc/ppp and others. It seems like network manager and resolvconf interfere with each others' modifications on /etc/resolv.conf. So the solution might be to either mark those two packages as mutually exclusive or make the two aware of each other. -- DNS problems when running VPN connections https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197156 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for the hint, Henning. Actually, I have changed the ISP so I no longer have the environment to test this problem again. Nevertheless, you're, most probably, right about /etc/resolvconf/interface-order. The only concern I still have is whether NetworkManager should make changes to interface-order by itself, or maybe provide some UI for this. As for me, it's not logical to check "Peer DNS through tunnel" in NetworkManager, and then find out that tunnel's DNS is the last to be considered. -- DNS problems when running VPN connections https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197156 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Did you have a look at the man page of interface-order(5)?
