[Bug 1211110] Re: network manager openvpn dns push data not updating system DNS addresses

 

Thank you Zephyr for the tip. That does help me automate the login
somewhat.

As for the fix Sam mentioned, I've been applying every update available
for 15.10 and while I thought it was fixed after initial testing, I have
found that the DNS is still leaking after subsequent tests.  I admit
though I have not yet installed 16.04 to verify the fix.  Fingers
crossed that it really is finally fixed!

Title:
  network manager openvpn dns push data not updating system DNS
  addresses

Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in openvpn package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When IPv4 Method is set to Automatic VPN, DNS address recieved from
  OpenVPN server do not update resolv.conf.

  This can be achieved when using a standard openvpn config file by
  adding the lines:

  script-security 2
  up /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf
  down /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf

  In Network-manager there seems to be no option to run connection
  specific scripts and the DNS data from the server is ignored.

  Ubuntu 13.04
  Network-manager 0.9.8.0-0ubuntu6
