Re "if you are using a VPN service for privacy purposes" - I have a contrary use case. I want to use my home router as much as possible, and the VPN (which may be my office network, or more critically a client's network) *only* for traffic required to go there. My understanding was that this was controlled by the checkebox "Use only for resources on this connection" - although, by the sounds of it, that only affects routing of traffic not DNS lookups (it *is* on the Routes.. subdialog)
traceroute to bugs.launchpad.net (91.189.89.225), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets 1 192.168.33.1 1.615 ms 2.487 ms 2.673 ms <== home router 2 .... traceroute to 192.168.68.44 (192.168.68.44), <== a resource on the remote LAN 1 192.168.70.1 7.561 ms 9.173 ms 10.266 ms <== VPN gateway 2 .... I can't check just now whether DNS queries are going where I intend or not - I'll have to reboot to get a working VPN link (Refer to Bug #1644098 <g>) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1644098 Title: Network Manager + OpenVPN does not respond to DNS server change on second connection attempt To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1644098/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
