I have been running OpenVPN within 16.04 for some time and didn't have
any DNS issues to begin with, even though I wasn't calling any scripts
such as /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf via the up/down commands in my
configuration; it just worked.
Something must have changed through updates however,
I can confirm this issue in 16.04, removing resolvconf and commenting
out dns=dnsmasq in NetworkManager.conf resolves the issue. I configured
openVPN using NetworkManager.

Workaround #42 works for me, workaround #44 doesn't (restarted the
service without rebooting).
Thanks!

Still here in Ubuntu 16.04. icesmurf's solution (comment #44) works for
me.

I just observed this on a laptop using network-manager-vpnc-gnome.
The DNS is correctly received via vpnc and added to NetworkManager, but
not being handled by dnsmasq.
nmcli -f IPv4 c show 820e9fe8-8ae6-4f69-ba85-402936c38852 |grep -i dns
ipv4.dns: AA.BB.CC.DD
Add this patch to debian/patches/
Add it to series after Support-IPv6-Servers.patch
Add usr/lib/NetworkManager/nm-openvpn-service-openvpn-helper-script
to network-manager-openvpn.install
Rebuild package and test.
Although this is an ugly hack, it is working for me without modifying
nsswitch
I can confirm the issue with VPNC in Kubuntu 16.10 and vpnc
0.5.3r550-2build1. Comment out dnsmasq seems to work.

I confirm that the bug is still present in Ubuntu 16.10 with OpenVPN
2.3.11.
If an additional DNS server is specified in the VPN IPv4 settings of
NetworkManager, the name resolution is completely lost, unless the
workaround of not-using dnsmasq is used (see

I also have this issue on 16.04 and commenting out the dnsmasq line does not
always work.
For some reason /etc/resolv.conf does NOT contain the proper DNS entries, nor
the search.
If I add that manually it even gets overriden every now and then it seems.
