Thanks for quick replay. I understand NM works for some people and solves this issue for those using it. What I've also read here and ther is that NM (or rather its OpenVPN plugin) does not support all of OpenVPN features so we could agree it's not *THE* way to go. What I'm interested in is more broader question; what's the proper way to dynamically manage DNS information (traditionally put in resolv.conf) on Linux? I'm aware this list might not be the best place to ask this but at the same time I think answer to this question is of great interest to many OpenVPN users. That's why I hope someone here could answer my question and point me to right direction. To tell the truth I switched from Windows recently and I find it quite surprising that something which seems to be fundamental part of network stack is such a mess in what's regarded as one of the best networking OS...
