Thank you @egor-tensin! I've been struggling with this problem for years. This is the first work around that actually works! I added that line under the [ipv4] section of my VPN connection file and then restarted the network manager with:
sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager.service Now it's actually using the DNS specified by the VPN rather than just my default ISP's DNS. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1688018 Title: DNS server from vpn connection is not being used after network-manager upgrade to 1.2.6 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1688018/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
