Hi Samuel, NetworkManager does not write to /run/resolv.conf. This is probably written by pppd. When you run pppd yourself (without using the wwan plugin of NetworkManager), you have to care for resolv.conf yourself. For example, disable NetworkManager writing /etc/resolv.conf via [main] dns=none in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf. After that, there is nothing wrong with symlinking /etc/resolv.conf -> /run/resolv.conf, if that is what you want. (Sidenote: on newer version 1.2, NM would respect your symlink, and you would not need to disable it via configuration). A bit more tricky is, to combine the DNS information from pppd and NetworkManager. Maybe you could use a dispatcher script for that... Alternatively, let NetworkManager manage the GSM connection via the wwan plugin. Good luck, Thomas
