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 ipv4.dns-search: ipv4.dns-options: (default) ipv4.ignore-auto-dns: yes Disabling dns=dnsmasq in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf seems to be a valid workaround. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1169437 Title: network-manager does not configure local resolver or dnsmasq to use the nameserver addresses received from the VPN server To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-openvpn/+bug/1169437/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
