> So the VPN connection is set to "addresses only"? Yes.
> I can't reproduce this on my system (though dns=dnsmasq is enabled, of course), with, or without a DNS being set, with the vpn configured as "addresses only". I removed the standalone dnsmasq and I'm using the nm-spawned one now. Same problem. Details: # Everything fine so far: $ ps -fC dnsmasq UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD nobody 6982 1413 0 09:50 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/dnsmasq --no-resolv --keep-in-foreground --no-hosts --bind-interfaces --pid-file=/var/run/sendsigs.omit.d/network-manager.dnsmasq.pid --listen-address=127.0.0.1 --conf-file=/var/run/nm-dns-dnsmasq.conf --cache-size=0 --proxy-dnssec $ cat /run/nm-dns-dnsmasq.conf server=10.160.31.1 server=194.63.238.4 server=8.8.8.8 # There's the problem - I don't want those DNS servers: $ cat /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf # Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8) # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN nameserver 150.140.1.4 nameserver 150.140.1.25 nameserver 127.0.0.1 # So, my DNS is broken: $ dig +short www.launchpad.net <no answer, the VPN DNS server is contacted and it doesn't know launchpad> I also attach a screenshot of my VPN configuration. Is there any other info that I can provide? I can give VNC access to my PC, if desired (alkisg at irc.freenode.net, e.g. in #ltsp). ** Attachment added: "vpn.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/980579/+attachment/3099514/+files/vpn.png ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/980579 Title: It's impossible to ignore VPN provided DNS servers Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have a desktop Precise installation with a normal dnsmasq installed, so I disabled the nm-spawned dnsmasq instance from NetworkManager.conf. I create a VPN connection in Network Manager without specifying any DNS servers. When I connect to it, I get: $ cat /var/run/dnsmasq/resolv.conf nameserver 150.140.1.4 nameserver 150.140.1.25 nameserver 127.0.0.1 nameserver 194.63.238.4 nameserver 8.8.8.8 I want to ignore the first two entries which are provided by my VPN. So I go to the VPN connection editor and I declare DNS=127.0.0.1. But again I get the same /var/run/dnsmasq/resolv.conf, so my DNS server entry there is completely ignored by network-manager and/or resolvconf. How can I tell Network Manager and/or resolvconf to ignore the DNS servers provided by my VPN connection?
