Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: network-manager
Configure a PPTP VPN Connection in Network Manager.
Choose the option Use-Peer-DNS under PPP Options tab.
Make connection to VPN server.
cat /etc/resolv.conf and notice that peer's DNS is set correctly as the
nameserver entry.
Terminate VPN connection
Reconfigure VPN Connection and remove tick from Use Peer DNS option
under PPP tab
Reconnect VPN.
/etc/resolv.conf is now completely blank (except for a # generated by
NetworkManager, do not edit! line), rendering name resolution inactive
and generally stuffing anything you might want to do on the net!
Worked correctly under Edgy - not working correctly on Feisty.
