On Ubuntu 17.04, I could get this working with the following steps: 1. rm -rf /etc/resolv.conf
This will tell systemd-resolved not to manage resolve.conf file. Simply disabling systemd-resolved service does not work because of some other depending service is enabled and starts systemd-resolved anyway. 2. Add this line to the [main] section of /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf dns=dnsmasq Appeartently network manager manages its own instance of dnsmasq so if you have dnsmasq package installed, you should make sure the dnsmasq service is not enabled otherwise this will not work. You can also install dnsmasq-base package instead, which does not include a systemd unit. A reboot probably is also necessary, I did these via ansible playbooks to create bootable images so this was the case for me. Restarting network manager service might also work.

Please see comment 50 for details and further instructions. [Original 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.
