[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1633874] Re: VPN - "Additional DNS servers" Settings are being Ignored
When configuring the IPv4 settings of a VPN connection, clicking the "Routes" button produces this menu: http://neartalk.com/ss/2016-12-05_001_634x674.png I always check the box for "Use this connection only for resources on its network". However, (due to recent updates) when this box is check I cannot ping machines on the remote network by computer name. When this box is checked, the network-manger is failing to query the two remote DNS servers for computer-names: http://neartalk.com/ss/2016-12-05_001_634x674.png It should query these additional DNS servers whether that box is check or not.

Work-around: Using Synaptic Package Manager, downgrading the network-manager package to version 1.1.93-0ubuntu4 and restarting the network-manager causes the unwanted behavior to stop. Work around steps: 1) Install Synaptic Package Manager sudo apt-get install synaptic 2) Search for "network-manager" (no quotes), and then select "network- manager" so that it is highlighted. 3) In the "Package" menu, select "Force Version" and choose 1.1.93-0ubuntu4 from the drop-down-menu: http://neartalk.com/ss/2016-10-19_005_1918x1077.png 4) Click the Apply button 5) Restart the network-manger service: sudo service network-manager restart 6) Reconnect to your vpn After these steps I was able to ping computers on the remote VPN network by their computer-name as prescribed by the "Additional DNS Server" option in the VPN configuration dialog. -- 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/1633874 Title: VPN - "Additional DNS servers" Settings are being Ignored Status in Network Manager Applet: New Status in NetworkManager-OpenVPN: New Status in network-manager-vpnc: New Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: During configuring of a VPN, Network Manager normally allows you to specify additional DNS servers that are located on the virtual private network: http://neartalk.com/ss/2016-10-16_001_601x625.png However, in Ubuntu 16.10 the network manager is ignoring the additional DNS that I've specified at the dialog I've linked above.

After doing a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04 into a fresh virtual machine without doing any upgrades both "VPN - Additional DNS Server" and "VPN- Additional Search Domains" worked.

I just downgraded back to Ubuntu 16.04, and I'm experience the same problem. My home directory is located on a separate partition. So, although I've reinstalled 16.04, there may be some previously existing config files in my home folder that were corrupted by 16.10.
