** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid ** Changed in: ppp (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- 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/500517 Title: Nameservers not added to /etc/resolv.conf for 3G, but ARE added to /etc/ppp/resolv.conf Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “ppp” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: network-manager Occasionally, new 3G connections don't get their nameserver details written into /etc/resolv.conf. The details are written to /etc/ppp/resolv.conf. I don't know if the problem is in NetworkManager or in pppd. I am using a fairly complicated NetworkManager setup. I've created a wifi network and am then connecting to the net over 3G, so that the rest of the family can surf the net over my connection. I've noticed that /etc/resolv.conf is often *not* updated when the 3G connection is established, though /etc/ppp/resolv.conf appears always to be established. Bizarrely, /etc/resolv.conf is occasionally updated. I can't spot a pattern as to when it might be, or when it won't be. In syslog I see PPP invoked with a comment like this: Dec 25 12:33:32 mark-xps-m1330 NetworkManager: <debug> [1261744412.117579] nm_ppp_manager_start(): Command line: /usr/sbin/pppd nodetach lock nodefaultroute ttyUSB3 noipdefault noauth usepeerdns lcp-echo-failure 0 lcp-echo-interval 0 ipparam /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/PPP/8 plugin /usr/lib/pppd/2.4.4/nm- pppd-plugin.so My /etc/ppp/options includes the ipcp-accept-local option, if that's relevant.
