Some additional (but minor) information: After a fresh boot, everything appears to work perfectly as expected for the -first- connection to the VPN. That is to say, the DNS servers pushed from the OpenVPN server are used to resolve VPN domains, and all is well.
After a subsequent disconnect and reconnect, it no longer works. Direct connections to IP addresses are fine, but resolution refuses to function properly. I've worked around this for now with the sub-optimal method of hardcoding a resolver: echo "server=/[DOMAIN]/[RESOLVER IP]" > /etc/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.d/vpn.conf ... and restarting dnsmasq. This seems to imply the problem lies somewhere in dbus communication, as Sergio mentioned above. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1675519 Title: Network Manager w/ dnsmasq Dies when VPN-ing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1675519/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
